Newest version Designer Software?
« on: May 06, 2022, 03:57:25 PM »
I updated a Brx Plc yesterday to all the latest firmware with the intent of using the new modbus scanner tool. Now I can't connect , just get the attached error message, even though I downloaded and reinstalled the newest version of designer yesterday. Is there a newer version that AD isn't showing yet?

That Do-more Technology Version (DmT) is corrupt.  Something strange is going on in your PLC.  You should have also updated the Boot Loader/FPGA that requires a power cycle (1.1.0).  Did you do that (requires a power cycle)?

You may want to contact AD Tech Support before proceeding, but you may need to clear the entire PLC using the dipswitch mechanism (see Help Topic DMD0266 Clear All section).  Make sure you have a good/latest disk copy before clearing the PLC (you may need to check your AutoSave backups if the disk copy is invalid also).

I didn't do a power cycle because it's at a remote location. I'll try that first.

Power cycle fixed the issue. Thanks.
