### **🛠️ Full Release Notes**

## **General**

- **Support the new Conveyor Motor and its**: configuration, jogging from Manual Mode, and programming via MachineLogic Code-Free and Python, as well as the TCP Socket API.
  - This motor offers the same motion capabilities as the step-servo motor, except homing.
  - It reports the state of its A and B sensor ports, but those sensor states do not affect motion behaviour. Those ports are intended to be used with box-detecting sensors for conveying systems. The state of these sensors can be seen in Manual Mode page, and read in MachineLogic Code Free and Python

**TCP Socket API**

- **Added 2 new endpoints:**
  - getSensorA_{port},{index} will return the state state of the sensor plugged into the Port A of step-servo and conveyor motors.
  - getSensorB_{port},{index} will return the state state of the sensor plugged into the Port B of step-servo and conveyor motors.

**MachineLogic - Code Free**

- Conveyor motors can be programmed in ML code free using instructions from the conveyor category in the command menu
- Conveyor motors can be programmed in ML code free using instructions from the conveyor category in the command menu
- Users can use the conveyor inputs in the wait for instruction, set variable from device, and the state machine transition.
- Variables can be created to monitor the state of conveyor motor inputs.

**MachineLogic - Python Programming**

- Conveyor motors can be programmed using the actuator class in MachineLogic-SDK
- actuator.home() is not supported for the new conveyor motor
- Users can read the state of conveyor motor inputs using the digitalInput class in MachineLogic-SDK
