Techart TCX-01 adapter update

[fh29]

Just a heads up that a new 4.0.0 firmware is available through the Techart updater.

As usual things are very confusing... The Mac updater itself has not been updated, it simply lists all the firmware available and you have to pick the new one. No release notes or explanations here, just a download link (more on that below).
I did the update but didn't notice anything new/different so far on my X1DII, but then I use non-AF lenses...

The download link shown with the 4.0.0 update is http://www.techart-logic.com/download/optimization.zip
This one is the updated Windows updater (!), which lets you perform firmware updates and configure some functions of your adapter too. These are AF related it seems, and let you tailor the adapter behaviour with some lenses. So for now the configuration part is only available to Windows users.

Feel free to chime in if you have more information, or know of more up to date ressources.

Does this firmware update enable autofocus on the Mk2?

It's supposed to work since firmware 3.0.0
If you lens doesn't belong to the supported list I'd be cautious and test it if possible.
