Compatibility Check of Device/Firmware and Corrective Actions
ToDo @Gregory: Check if EPC content needs to be updated

Overview

@Updated

When ULP modules are upgraded with new functionalities, verify with the EcoStruxure Power Commission software that they are compatible with the different modules in the IMU system. Use the Firmware Upgrade table to perform diagnostics and identify discrepancies between the ULP modules. This table also provides the recommended actions relevant to the detected discrepancies.

NOTE: Compatibility check will only work if the device is connected.

Firmware Upgrade

To view the firmware status, click Firmware in the Device view.

The Firmware Upgrade window displays the following compatibility table.

Legend	Name	Description
A	IP address	Displays the IP address of the connected device.
B	Modbus address	Displays the Modbus address of the connected device.
C	Module	Lists the ULP modules of the connected device.
D	Status	Displays the compatibility status of the module inside the system.
E	Device Version	Displays the current firmware version installed in the module.
F	Available Version	Displays the latest firmware version available for upgrade.
G	Recommended Action	Provides the solution for discrepancies.
H	Refresh	Updates the changes made as per the recommended action.

Status

The Status column identifies the discrepancy conditions within the ULP modules.

Icons	Module status
	Nominal
	Non-critical firmware discrepancy Or Non-critical hardware discrepancy
	Critical firmware discrepancy Critical hardware discrepancy Or Hardware degraded
	Stop Or Conflict

Recommended Actions

The Recommended action to be performed column provides a solution to resolve a discrepancy. Each discrepancy has a generic predefined recommended action.

The table lists the recommended actions to take in the case of a detected discrepancy.

Module status	Description	Recommended action to be performed
Nominal	The ULP module is in nominal mode.	None.
Non-critical firmware discrepancy	There is a non-critical firmware discrepancy between the ULP module and other modules in the IMU.	Upgrade firmware at the next maintenance operation.
Non-critical hardware discrepancy	There is a non-critical hardware discrepancy between the ULP module and other modules in the IMU.	Replace module at the next maintenance operation.
Critical firmware discrepancy	There is a critical firmware discrepancy between the ULP module and other modules in the IMU.	Upgrade firmware.
Critical hardware discrepancy	There is a critical hardware discrepancy between the ULP module and other modules in the IMU.	Replace module.
Hardware degraded	The ULP module is in degraded mode.	Replace module at the next maintenance operation.
Stop	The ULP module is out of service.	Replace module.
Conflict	The ULP module is in conflict mode.	Remove duplicate module.

Refresh

After performing a recommended action for a specific discrepancy, you can click the Refresh button to update the changes in the Firmware Upgrade window.
