Fixed Problems
--------------
- Bugfix: TCP-socket connection failed to send response due to wrong thread priority settings.
- Bugfix: On-Time parameter (SPx commands) is now optional for backward compatibility reasons.
- Bugfix: Prevent, that sensor-ON source can be set to itself (SA1, SA2, SB1 and SB2).

          to PREVIOUS and OFF source to SELF.
- Bugfix: Mnenmonics command BLV returns brand depending application version string now.
- Bugfix: Mnenmonics command SEN returns <NAK> if one of the four parameters a-d is set to 0.
- Bugfix: At IF300P startup the first pressure request command was answered with <NAK>.
- Bugfix: Fixed bug where single bytes received could be lost.
- New:    Set IFxxx baudrate to 115200 automatically if IF500_X_UART is connected.
          IFxxx baudrate cannot be changed manually.
- Bugfix: Fixed bug where TCP socket connection did not work with certain tools.
- Bugfix: Fixed bug where menu did not work properly when watchdog (AUTO) occurred and
          bargraph was enabled.

          - Display board identification information
          - Display software version (not available for legacy boards)
          - Display hardware version (not available for legacy boards)
          - Update software via USB memory stick (not available for legacy boards)
- New:    Setpoint ON-Timer added:
          - Menu entry added
          - Added ON-Timer parameter to mnemonics commands SP1, SP2, SP3 and SP4
          - Added ON-Timer functionality to setpoint module.
- New:    Gas-type correction added.
- New:    Major sensor control update:
          - sensor control menu extended
          - added sensor ON options HOTSTART + xx, PREVIOUS [+ xx]
- Bugfix: FATAL ERROR if firmware image is downloaded to a device with bootloader V1.56 and older.
          Device ID was introduced in bootloader V1.57 and application fails to read value
          if parameter does not exist.
- Bugfix: Response buffer was never freed when send failed.
- Bugfix: Ethernet settings could not be changed after "LOAD DEFAULTS".
