dentalben Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Is it normal for the update manager to show everything up-to-date after updating the a controller to 2.10.6, even if the other IE TS and IO extender are still at 2.9.1? Shouldn't they all change to the latest version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 -defunct- Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Yes, some devices have a terminal version lower than the running OS. If they report as fully updated, then that is as far as they will update. Devices with an older terminal version will still function, but possibly with limitations. Exception is the IO extender. That one is fully functional even on OS3 even though the version is 2.9.1. Matt Lowe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 deeonline Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 My update manager shows "Connecting" status for the IO extender (see attached). Is this also normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your IO Extender is not connected to your network, see what is the issue and it will work with 2.9.1 which is the latest firmware release for it!

0 deeonline Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Thank you. My IO Extender has been online all this time. I am able to delete and re-add it back to the EA-5 controller. The ethernet lights are on. I am able to identify it with the "Link" button. Also, it's been working fine up until OS 3.2.3 update and then the Serial ports just stop sending commands right after this update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
