Added “Keep internet connection in sleep mode” to sleep in console configuration option.
- When this setting is enabled, systems with wireless Internet connections will maintain the Internet connection even during sleep mode. This allows additional software and content to be downloaded to the system while the system is in sleep mode.
- This default setting is enabled.
- When this setting is disabled, the system connects to the Internet only periodically, which reduces power consumption.
Important: Systems that have not been updated to version 13.0.0 or later behave as if this setting is enabled.
Changed the way the “Analog Knobs Calibration” option starts in the console settings.
- In the console configuration, go to Controls and sensors, Specify Calibrate analog buttons Then tilt the entire analog in either direction and hold it for a few seconds to start the calibration.
Users can now see if a wireless internet connection is using the 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency band under Connection Status after selecting the internet in the console setup option.
