| Functional Compatibility | |
|---|---|
| Hardware Version | Firmware Compatibility |
| 02.00.00 (AD) | Compatible with FW 02.05.01, 02.05.03 |
| Problems Resolved | |
|---|---|
| Issue | Resolution |
| Communication Timeout with IO-Link Devices | Firmware modified with increased startup timeout to support IO-Link devices with longer startup times. |
| Valid Module Substitution Fault | Fixed issue where a fault was shown in the fault table when an RSTi-EP node with FW 02.04 was downloaded to the controller. |
| Known Restrictions and Open Issues | |
|---|---|
| Issue | Description |
| Channel Diagnostics During Hot-Swap | Additional channel diagnostics messages may be reported during hot-swap, beyond expected Loss/Addition of Module faults. |
| Data Shift with Consecutive Modules | When similar modules are configured consecutively, hot-removal of one module may cause input data to shift (e.g., data from later modules reflected in earlier slots). |
| Operational Notes | |
|---|---|
| Subject | Description |
| Output Behavior During Hot-Swap | Transient Loss of Power (up to 500 ms) may occur during hot insertion/removal, causing outputs to drop to zero. Verify against application requirements before hot-swapping. |
