dSPACE DS1006 Processor Board Firmware 1.3.5 Description

The DS1006 Processor Board is dSPACE's flagship for high-end real-time applications. The DS1006 is designed for calculating complex, precisely detailed simulation models that require enormous computing power. The processing power and I/O capacity can be boosted even further by linking up to 20 DS1006 Processor Boards in a multiprocessor system.

NOTE:

- Boot firmware files for use with Releases not supporting DS1006 multi-core boards

Starting with Service Pack 2 for dSPACE Release 6.5 the DS1006 boot firmware (Vs. 2.1.6 or higher) is not compatible to dSPACE Releases without multi-core support anymore.

Thus the boot firmware must be downgraded to a version prior 2.0 when using a DS1006 under Release 6.5 without Service Pack or prior Releases. 

Installation:

The ZIP files comprise the firmware as well as the stand-alone firmware programming tool firmware_update_ds1006.exe. Download the required ZIP file and extract its contents into a new directory. Open a command line box and enter firmware_update_ds1006.exe to see the program's help page.
Typically this dedicated firmware flashing tool works much faster than the update with ControlDesk.

About Device Firmware:

Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.

On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.

When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.

As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.

Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
