1747-SDN Module Firmware History
Purpose This section describes enhancements, corrected anomalies and other
important information for this revision and previous revisions of the
1747-SDN module firmware.
Revision 8.002 The 1747-SDN series C module includes these firmware
enhancements.
•
Embedded EDS file - The module contains its own electronic
data sheet (EDS) file within its firmware. This allows RSNetWorx
for DeviceNet software, 5.0 or later, to upload and register the
EDS file directly from the scanner. In previous versions, you had
to locate the EDS file on a website and manually install it.
•
AutoScan - This feature automatically sets up communication
with the devices on your DeviceNet network. You no longer
have to use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software to map the
devices into a scanlist.
The 1747-SDN series C module includes all features provided in the
series B module.
Revisions 7.005 and 7.006
Known Anomalies Firmware revisions 7.005 and 7.006 contain the following known
anomalies:
•
Inability to flash update the module if connections to all slave
devices are not made. The module displays a 98 error.
•
Certain application programs (ladder programs) may cause the
SLC controller to fault due to exceeded shared memory lock
time. The SLC controller displays a 57 error. The module does
not display an error.
•
Internal performance changes may cause timing dependant
applications to fail.
•
Saving ADR data may cause the module to fault upon next
power cycle. The module displays a E9 error. Upon next power
cycle, the scanlist and configuration data defaults to out of box
values.
