Emerson RPC2 Communications Module Firmware 10.0.0.2_96704 Description

This package provides the necessary installation files of Emerson RPC2 Communications Module Firmware version 10.0.0.2_96704.

Features/Enhancements:

- Reboot button added to certain System tab pages whenever a restart is required, before configuration changes take effect (Web UI).
- A USB memory stick facilitates initial setup of networking, protocol and device configurations. Insert the memory stick into the RPC2 USB port using a Type A female to micro A/B male adaptor.
- There is a new discovery method when one of the following conditions occurs: The RPC2 unit reboots/ The first sensor is connected/ A sensors are disconnected/ After adding or removing one or more sensors (Click the Discover icon on the Sensors-Config page to discover the new configuration).

Fixes:

Web UI
- HTTPS supported on Link/Management port.
- The % utilization colored bars are displayed within bounds of scrollable list.
- There is now an iconic display of state and lock conditions for a receptacle group.

Command Line Interface
- Telnet session starts immediately for static ip configuration by clearing DNS settings.
- The current threshold command using “@’ parameter configures complete PDU or bank.
- Consistent power commands response formatting.
- The network dns test type command returns Fully Qualified Domain Name for that configured mode verification.
- The system session timeout command replies (secs) unit label removed since value is either hours or minutes.
- The system agent command returns properly described listed values.
- The datalog interval command returns expected interval value.
- Response of commands returning the correct branch values as referenced by MPXBRM ID.
- Support configuration of IPV6 address format.
- Corrected grammatical errors in some response strings.

SNMP
- IPV6 addressing support.

Configuration
- Added Power Up State column at Device Explorer-List-Config page.

Networking
- Obtaining DNS Server IPv6 address.
- Obtaining stateful address from IPv6 DHCP server.
- Entering IPv6 address for TFTP or FTP server for firmware updates.
- Handling of saving empty IPv6 Link Local address field.
- IPv6 Link Local address field displays stateful or stateless address.
- Establishing a network connection using an IPv6 address in browser’s URL.
- Sending DNS Test query for IPV6.
- Interaction of DHCP and auto-indexing for array discovery process no longer requires a reboot or power cycle to adapt to networking or cabling changes. If DHCP mode is configured, but no active DHCP server is present, then the auto-indexing mode will persist for approximately 40 seconds. Afterwards, it will revert automatically to DHCP mode indefinitely until the network cabling is disconnected for greater than 10 seconds, whereupon a re-connection will repeat the process.

Data Logging
- Voltage column heading for “L3-N” was previously reporting “L2-N” heading.

Event Notification
- Reboot can be initiated from MPH2 on-board LCD.
- A Too Many Sensor Alarms message is reported if greater than ten sensors connected to a single RPC2.

Sensors
- Adding and removing sensors after initial sensor string is discovered now requires clicking the Discover icon on the Sensor-Configuration page to re-discover the newly configured string.
- The Sensor-Configuration page user label information previously was reporting serial numbers.
- Sensor hysteretic threshold processing requires measurement to persist for five seconds above or below configured threshold before an alarm is made active or cleared, respectively.
- Improved resiliency and immunity from transient EMI to mitigate false positive alarms and absent/new sensors reporting.

DSView/RPM
- Remote authentication now supports TLSv1 protocol.

General Fixes
- Alphanumeric, space, and ~!#$_+`-={}|[]\\:;'?,.\/%^&*()@ characters are permitted for all text fields.

About Communications Module 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.
