If you wish to dial the Stargate without the inner ring spinning you can turn this feature on by going to the menu > options > ring spin > enable.

For a list of gate addresses please visit http://www.alpha-fox.com/asn/db/

To dial a random Stargate on the network, simply press the big middle button without pressing any symbols first. If there are any symbols pressed, you may need to reset the DHD first.
If you end up at a gate without a DHD and want to continue random dialling, just say “/d random” to dial the next random gate.
Note: Random dialling or “Gate hopping” is a great way to find new gates and cool places. We highly recommend this for explorers!

If you rez your DHD out of normal chat range from your gate and you wish to stand at the DHD and use a standard /d voice dial you will need to turn on the relay by going to the main menu > options then pressing “CMD Relay”

The DHD has an “auto iris” feature that makes the gates iris close on all incoming wormholes and then reopen upon shutdown so that people can still use your gate for outgoing wormholes. This system uses IDC system.

This feature will either reset the gate or close the iris depending on if the wormhole is an outgoing or incoming going from or to a certain region.
Only the owner can add or remove addresses from this list.

• To clear all addresses from the list say: /1 clear block list

This function will send a probe to the destination gate to send back various data such as what the sim lag is (time-dilation) sim FPS, parcel name etc.
You can only use this function while there is an outgoing wormhole by saying the following command: /1 send probe

This DHD will only work with gates that you own.
The code word is pot noodle.
This DHD has copy perms, so we recommend you make a copy before placing it and keep the original in a safe place, Just in case the asset server goes and looses your only copy.

Thanks to Peter Lameth for creating the IDC system, the profile picture script and the region map image script.
Thanks to Vala Vella for being a dedicated beta tester and bug finder/reporter :)
Thanks to Wyvern Carter for poking me and feeding me cake to keep me going :p
Thanks to Lucian Underwood for constantly nagging for new features :p
Thanks to Asda for supplying me with milk and pizza. Yummy pizza ^.^

Fixed some bugs in the system that controls weather or not you want the gates dialling ring to rotate or not.
Updated the IDC system to improve support for large groups of people all sending their IDC codes through the gate.

Required update for the IDC System - the XML-RPC communications systems has been dropped and replaced with the much faster and more reliable http-in system, thus not needing to rely on an external server. 
This makes the IDC system much more reliable and faster than previous versions. Because of this all previous versions are now incompatible and will need to be upgraded. Updates are free as always.

Required update for the IDC System code which has extra security checks after someone tried to hack the system. They failed but it flooded our logs with false readings and also confused the GDOs.

Fixed a bug that reset the setting for making the gates glyph ring spin
Fixed a bug that made stopping the gate mid dial impossible
Fixed a bug where the DHD would try to shutdown incoming wormholes when the centre button is pressed.
Updated links  for the OS Labs from .info to the new .co.uk  domain.

Fixed a bug in the centre button.

Product released to general Second Life population.
