TSX 57103 FIRMWARE UPDATE

[slav321 0]

Hi I have TSX 57103 V5.0,old memory card disappiared and no way to get another the same one,it's obsolete ,the replacement TSXMFPP128K requires Firmware minimum V5.5,i've got V5.8,my question is what surprizes can i expect if i update the firmware....like program not compatable with newer Firmware...etc? Thanks.

Haven't touched one in years, but I don't think the program would have an issue, but you may want to open it in PL7 Pro and see what firmware it was written for and change it in the project. But if I recall right, the firmware should be backward compatible. But I last worked on one of these in 2001.

Operating System V6.2 fixes the following issues: _Processors TSX572623 server resources are frozen if EF Read_Var or Write_Var are sent out on Ethernet to absent equipments _ERR led is not managed when CPU is in HALT. _The max number of communication modules can't be reached with TSXP57453A _%SW53 is not refreshed by the NTP server when the date and time of CPU are not valid _Premium: If MAST task is stopped, PLC stays in RUN state _SCY21601 is not reconfigured after an extract / insert of the device Operating system V6.1 (files TSXP57xx3V61.bin)allows CPU to program blue PCMCIA flash memories and fixes the following issues : -When the PLC is used as a Unitelway slave and sends WRITE_OBJECT requests to the master, in case the master disappears , the PLC gets a 16#000B report (lack of system resources) rather than a time-out. -R_NTPC fails to get datas from a TSXETY5103 in slot 10 or above. -In few cases , a TSXETY120 may fails to restart after power recycle -When the power supply is not equipped with a battery, the CPU doesn't restart in RUN mode after a cold start even this option has been selected in configuration. -Crash PLC using upload OLE request wirhout PLC reservation Review . Operating system V6.0 doesn't exist for TSXP57xx3M CPUs Operating system V5.9 (files not yet available) fixes the following issues : -TSXSCP111, TSXSCY21601 : the first Input_char command after a STOP/RUN doesn't receive the characters -ERR LED still blinking even if the the system bit %S67 ( battery low ) has disappear -Using TSXMRPF004M in slot 1, CPU stays in ERR blinking after a Power Cycle and after updating database symbols -PLC crash when reading an Asi-V2 object from XBTL installed on TXBT -Erroneous message associated to %S118 bit (only in german) -When Spanish language is configured in PL7 for Diag Buffer, defective FIPIO node are not shown in the XBT-F Operating system V5.8 (files not yet available) fixes the following issues : - Transfer freezing during " line adaptation " if TER port configured in ASCII, with parity - Diag viewer : bits %S15, %S18, %S19 et %S20 status not always refreshed - CPU crash (led TER, ERR and IO lit) and SW124=H'9100 when using diagnostic screens - PL7 viewer : acknowledges alarms not yet displayed - IBY100 equipped with GPX3 :unconsistent input data Operating system V5.7 (files not yet available) fixes the following issues : -TSXMFP032P : Transfer aborted after several tenths transfers (TSXP571x3 only) -TSXIBY100: Lost of PCP requests (all) -PC <-> PLC application transfer locked if using XIP driver (all) -Crash CPU during application transfer if HMI accesses simultaneously to FIPIO objects (TSXP57x53 /TSXP57x823 / TPCX57353) This firmware evolution is synchronized with an hardware one : -Add a filter to microprocessor RS485 input to avoid loss of communication with terminals (CCX, XBT, ...) connected on TER ou AUX Operating system V5.6 (files not yet available)provides compatibility with TSXMRPC007M cartridge and fixes the following issues: - Warm Stand-by , fluctuation of PID output between 2 values in StandBy CPU - Process loop : bit %Mwxy.i.7 :X1 set to 1 if bipolar measurement and function generator - Process loops : out_inf and out_sup parameter values swapped each other - Process loops : LOCAL mode untimely selected when modifying multiplexed HMI table (%MW3704) - Process loops : Save command using bit %Mdxy.i:X23 does not succeed - INPUT_CHAR function : Time out and activity bit not badly managed - Limitation of TSXETY modules : 3 instead of 4 (TSXP57453 and TSXP574823) - TSXCTY2A/4A modules : error bit is set to 1 for 200ms after powered on - TSXCTY2A/4A modules : preselection command has no effect after module powered on - EF REAL_STRING : uses 16 bytes instead of 15 (resolution 8006) Operating system V5.5 (files not yet available)provides compatibility with UNITY PCMCIA cartridges and fixes the following issues: - Regulation : RESET action modified when changing Physical units to normalized units - %SW13 (network/station address) forced to 0 after application download - %SW49 not updated when PLC powered off more than 2 days Operating system V5.4 (files not yet available)fixes the following issues: - READ_PARAM and WRITE_PARAM instructions failed (this bug affects V5.2 and V5.3) - OUT_MAN parameter cannot be written from application - READ_PCMCIA instruction cannot access to first 64K zone in a TSXMFP264P cartridge if CPU is double slot one - SAVE_PARAM and RESTORE_PARAM instructions fail when used with AUTO SELECT loop - Analog modules may not be reconfigurable ON-LINE (this bug affects V5.2 and V5.3) - Regulation : tracking mode on auto-select loops may be difficult to use Operating system V5.3 (files not yet available)fixes the following issue: - communication locked between MONITOR Pro and a TSXFPP20 PCMCIA CARD in the CPU Operating system V5.2 (files not yet available)provides a new functionnality : -Data archiving services (EF SET_PCM_EXT, WRITE_PCM_EXT, READ_PCM_EXT) and fixes the following issues : - Grafcet : CPU goes on ERR when only one active step is configured -Regulation : bits %MWxy.i.2:X4 et X8 are set to 1 when modifying parameters KP, TI in a cascad loop Operating system V5.1(files not yet available)fixes the following issue: -Processor crash on power off/on of extended racks. -Processor crash after programm download if com family EF is updated . -programm is lost after power on if %S94 was activated .
