There is limited support for N4x-series cameras in any version that supports the N3x cameras. These versions might show the wrong model name, but the device will otherwise run normally.
- 2
There is limited support for X-series cameras with 1.6 MP sensors since version 2.3.581. Pairing a projector with 1.6 MP sensors in these versions will show a warning that the sensor model is not supported. This can be ignored, the device will still run normally.
