Shows in Online Tree as "NI Master"
- SW1060_Master_v1_3_106.KIT (NX-Series) or later must be
loaded on the master for the Enova DGX 8/16/32/64
MCPU v2.8.x.x boards. Shows in Sutdio as "DGX Master"
- NetLinx Studio v4.0 is required to work with the
NX-Series DGX Masters.
----------------------------------------------------------
Note: Endpoint firmware should NOT exceed the following
versions whenever when using DGX FW version 2.0.x/2.0.2.2:
- DXLink DX-TX v1.6.x
- DXLink DX-RX v1.9.x
- DXLink DXF-TX v1.2.12
- DXLink DXF-RX v1.2.1
----------------------------------------------------------
Changes in this release
----------------------------------------------------------
DXLink Input
- Updated firmware to support alternate flash memory parts
NOTE: Boards using these new parts will not function with
firmware earlier than v1.2.5.1 - Do not roll back.
DXLink Output
- Improved ethernet switch monitoring to prevent offline
issues with RX on system power up
----------------------------------------------------------
Known Issues
----------------------------------------------------------
- A wait of 15seconds is required when Hot Swapping DGX
I/O boards
- DGX Configuration Software
The DGX Config Software has not been tested with any
non-English versions of Windows XP or Windows 7.
- DXLink Tx Fw v3.0.6.0
The 'show stats' DGX Shell command (or “show vs100
stats" from the DXLINK TX/RX telnet command) may
report some cable lengths approaching 100m as 255m.
This is a reporting limitation imposed by the chip mfr
for TX v3.0.6.0 and does not affect the functionality.
This applies to any DGX or DVX DXLink output, or any
DXLink TX/MFTX module or wallplate using this version.
- DO NOT USE THE "DGX_SHELL>reboot" command with older
ENOVA DGX 8/16/32 Enclosures with Power-One Power
Supplies that have the new CPU with NX-Series Master.
This WILL cause the cards to not power up and REQUIRE a
hard power cycle of the cage. Power-One supplies may be
identified in the ~scr6v3! or with the
"DGX_SHELL>power INFO" command by model number:
e.g. model: FNP850-12ARG (Power-One Supply)

Programming Information
----------------------------------------------------------
- If sending this kit to a DGX 8/16/32 with v1.6.5.13 or
earlier, you MUST FIRST send the following kit to the
Enova DGX enclosure: "LOAD_BEFORE_SENDING_DGX_KIT.kit"
This takes around 1 minute to complete. Once completed,
refresh the System Online Tree and expand the 5002
device to verify that the Integrated Device version is
now at v1.2.1.15 - Then send this DGX kit to complete
the system upgrade
- Upgrade time may take up to 2 hours.
- The only reliable way to monitor the upgrade is to jump
directly to the upgrade status page with the url:
http://master_ipAddr/web/upgrade/systemUpgradeStatus.xml
before initiating the KIT upgrade to monitor the runtime
upgrade status.
- It is recommended that you disable any program running
on the DGX or that you disable any program using the
Enova DGX BCSTunnel service before initiating the Enova
DGX KIT firmware upgrade.
- It is also recommended that you disconnect/disable any
control system using the external serial connection(s)
during any KIT file upgrades.
- After the Upgrade Status page has indicated that the
Enova DGX firmware upgrade was successful and device
5002 has come back online, it is recommended that you
power cycle the DGX to insure all endpoint devices come
back online properly.
- New HDMI/DVI Input boards will only work with v1.0.6.4
image or greater (v2.0.0.10 DGX KIT) or greater due to
hardware design change. It can be identified in the shell
“show" command with a hardware ID of 1 (HW_ID 0x1).
- New DXLink Fiber Input/Output Simplex Boards will
not be compatible with v1.2.0.x DXLink images or older.
Enova DGX KIT v2.0.0.8 or older will fail to load with
these boards present in the system.
