This release contains a number of bug fixes and new features, again, thanks to Thomas Winischhofer @realA10001986.

A new sound pack is required for this update. See here for instructions on updating sound files.
Notable changes since v2.9:
- Support for audio line out (to connect external speakers for sounds other than the keypad enter & dial sounds) on control boards v1.4 & v1.4.5
- Audio line out settings on/off option 350/351
- Major code cleanup & numerous bug fixes
- Switched keypad sounds to wav for more immediate play-back
- BTTFN: Device type VSR (8xxx) added; AUX is now 5xxx.
- Tweak acceleration sound logic; use with-lead-version of tt sound if time is too short for the accel sound, but long enough for the lead.
- New user-sound: If SD contains "ttaccel.mp3", this file will be played immediately upon initiating a time travel when a speedo is connected, during the acceleration phase, until the start of the actual time travel (at which point it is interrupted by the usual time travel sound). This sound can "bridge" the silence while the speedo counts up.
- 998 restores destination and last time departed displays to user-stored values (ie the ones programmed through the keypad menu, unless overwritten because "Persistent Time Travels" were enabled at some point after programming those times). Command only valid if Persistent Time Travels are off. Pauses time-cycling for 30 mins. Meant as an extension to Exhibition mode for quickly displaying pre-programmed times.
- Time: Time stored in the hardware RTC is now UTC (was local time previously)
- User-set dates/times for Destination and Last Time Departed displays are now considered "secondary settings" and saved to SD (if available and corresponding option is set).
- "Persistent Time Travels" now require the option "Save secondary settings to SD" to be checked, and an SD card to be present.
- Do not "return from time travel" if not on a time travel.
- Config Portal: Propose most used time-zones as datalists for time zone entry.
- Include fork of WiFiManager (2.0.16rc2 with minor patches) in order to cut down bin size
- Audio data (TCDA.bin) can now be uploaded through Config Portal ("UPDATE" page). Requires an SD card present.
- New keypad codes: 300-319 sets volume level; 399 activates volume pot; those are short-cuts to avoid the keypad menu to change the volume selection.
- Speedo GPS: Make speedo update rate user-configurable
- 33+ENTER shows weekday of currently displayed "present time" date.
- Support for MS8607 temp+hum sensor
- Support for various rotary encoders to set Speedo speed
- WiFiManager: Disable pre-scanning of WiFi networks when starting the CP. Scanning is now only done when accessing the "Configure WiFi" page.
- BTTFN: Clients can now discover the TCD's IP address through the TCD's hostname. Uses multicast, not DNS.
