Enhanced firmware is available for the family of MOST controllers, which are intended as replacements for PLCs in process applications.
“As part of our ongoing commitment to open systems, we have enhanced the controller’s firmware to make configuration easier and faster, added support for HART over Ethernet, and expanded Modbus redundancy support to include the controller’s serial ports,” says Dave Reynolds, marketing manager for the controllers. Other new firmware features include: online configuration, by which the controller can download an entire configuration without stopping module scanning; autodetection of new I/O modules; online firmware download, which supports upgrading firmware in a redundant controller system without losing control of the process; Modbus floating point support; TCP communication speed improvements; and enhanced network topology error diagnostics.
