v1.1.0

Daisy Controller 1.1.0 — universal macOS build (Apple Silicon + Intel) and a 64-bit Windows installer, seeded with Daisy Library 1.3.0.

Instruments

• Daisy Process: a Detect probes button re-identifies the probes on all four channels without a rescan, so a probe moved between channels while the panel is open is picked up on demand.
• Daisy Process: a channel with no probe collapses to "No probe" instead of offering a Real-Time toggle and a Take Measurement that would wait on the empty socket.
• Daisy Process: real-time readings refresh every second (was every 5 s).
• Daisy Process: an Incyte (viable cell density) probe now shows its conductivity in mS/cm beside the cell-density value, read through the new per-channel measurement in Daisy Process firmware v0.3.0. On older Process firmware that slot shows a dash.
• Detecting a Daisy Process with empty probe channels is reliable on boards still running the June firmware: discovery keeps asking until the board answers, and waits up to 15 s for it.
• Gantry: Home sits above the X/Y position inputs, away from Run; the X/Y inputs accept 0.001 mm steps, the stage's real resolution.
• Gantry: a Home that never finishes is now stopped after 60 s with a message that says what to check, and the gantry can be homed again immediately rather than after a two-minute wait.
• Z stage: the running view counts the estimated time down to zero instead of counting operation time up.
• Mass flow controller: the full-scale picker offers 1, 2, 5, 10 and 20 SLPM.
• Instruments catalog: products are grouped by family (all peristaltic pumps together, then the pistons; the three rotary valves, then the solenoid valves and the MFC).

Notebook

• Estimate button in the toolbar reports how long the notebook will take to run, using the same estimator as recipes (homing and reading-dependent branches can add time).
• Only one cell runs at a time: while a cell is running or paused, the other cells' Run buttons and Run All are disabled, with a tooltip saying why.
• A piston, Z stage or gantry move run from a cell or recipe with wait=True now lands its position marker on the final position when the move ends, instead of replaying the move afterwards.
• The AI assistant declines off-topic requests (general knowledge, proofs, writing) before they reach the reasoning model, so they no longer cost tokens.
• The instrument panel's insert button says "Insert into notebook".

App

• The footer status line now shows a Log button with the message count, making it clear that the full, scrollable message log is one click away.
• Settings › Versions lists only stable, published Daisy Library releases as rollback targets.
• Bundled Daisy Library 1.3.0: more accurate time estimates (rotary valve moves include ramp and reverse-approach time; all estimates reported to the millisecond), piston aspirate/dispense no longer refuses a move to the exact end of the stroke after a Stop, and clearer volume messages.
