Firmware version, part number and information requests

NIn a query response, an asterisk (*) after the version number indicates the version that is currently used.

A question mark (? or ?.??) indicates that the factory default firmware is the only firmware loaded in the IPL T S unit.

A carat (^) indicates the version of firmware that should be running, but, since a mode 1 reset was performed, the factory default firmware version is loaded and running instead. An exclamation point (!) indicates that the firmware is corrupted.

NResponses to commands differ depending on which, if any, verbose response mode the IPL T S device is in. See the CV command (EX2@ CV}) under IP setup commands later in this table.

The bootstrap firmware is not user- replaceable, but you may need this information during troubleshooting.

Factory-installed firmware is different from the bootstrap firmware, but it is also not user- replaceable. This firmware was installed at the factory; it is the version the controller reverts to after a mode 1 reset (see ch. 2).
