1.5.2 Determining the Firmware Version of the MVI56-PDPMV1
Module
There are two ways to verify the module firmware version:
Checking the Version During Power-Up
When the module powers up, it will search for the ControlLogix processor to
establish backplane connectivity. If the correct ladder is not loaded to the
processor, or if the module is not located in the configured slot, or the processor
is missing, the module will not allow access to the debug menu and will print the
message "Waiting for Connection to the processor…"
Because debug menu access is not allowed at this point, view the debug menu
messages that are printed during power-up for the module firmware version.
Refer to the message that appears just before the message "C>pb_msts1":
If the message "MVI56-PDPMV1 Firmware Version = x.xx" appears on the
screen as shown in the following illustration, the module firmware is version 1.21
or later.
