-    1.  [Eiger] somtimes Freeze 
+    1.  [Jungfrau, Moench, Ctb]
-- removed feb reset in stop acquisition as it caused processing bit to randomly not go high (leads to infinite loop waiting for it to go high). This is anyway done at prepare acquisition and set trimbits.
+        Updating kernel was not enough to ensure seamless programming of FPGA.
-- left AND right registers monitored for processing bit done
+        nCe signal now made high before programming blackfin.
-- febProcessinginprogress returns STATUS_IDLE and not IDLE
+
-- In feb stop acquisition, if processing bit is running forever, checks for 1 s, then if acq done bit is high, returns ok, else throws
+        Updating the on-board detector server to this version is recommended 
-- feb stop acquisition returns 1 if success and fucntion in list calling it compares properly instead of STATUS_IDLE (no effect, but incorrect logic)
+        before updating firmware for future releases.
-- chipsignals to trimquad should only monitor right fpga (not both as it will throw)
+
-- fixed error messages of readregister inconsistent values
+        Also removed the unnecessary test to check if it is allowed to update 
-- setmodule and read frame was returning fail without setting error messages (leading to broken tcp connection due to no error message)        
+        kernel or on-board detector server, depending on the current kernel 
+        version.
+
+    2.  [Eiger] Stop command freezes server (apparent in large detectors) 
+        Stop command sometimes did not receive processing done signal from 
+        firmware. A workaround is implemented in software until fixed in 
+        firmware. After 1 s, it will check status and throw if it is still
+        running.
+
+    3.  [Eiger] Quad Trimbits or threshold
+        Loading trimbits or setting threshold will throw an incorrect exception
+        for a quad as the left and right register values will not match. The fix 
+        only sets and monitors right fpga for chip trim signals in quad.
+
+    4.  [Eiger] Minor refactoring
+        Inconsistent reads between left and right register for read/write 
+        register commands now give clear error messages.
+
+        Fixed some minor functions returned empty error messages when failing.
