Title: Version 2.46 Software -OUT1/2
Post by: g4swx on 2011-11-09, 13:23:58

Hi,

I have just upgraded the software on the controller and radio units to version 2.46. I spotted in the release notes: "- If you use the I/O connector, be careful OUT1 and OUT2 are swapped, they where wrong before."

I do use OUT1 and OUT2 to provide remote operation of relays from switches fed into the IN-1 and IN-2 inputs. The operation still seems to be as before ie: an input on IN-1 produces an output on OUT-1 etc, so no change. However when I set the units up I did swap the OUT wires as I suspected that I might have got the wires crossed in the following relay unit.

Have I missunderstood the release note or are there more swaps to come???

Hi

There is no diffrnce in the firmware, it's only the manual which is adjusted, the pin numbering of the I/O connector was wrong.

Thanks Mike - that makes a lot of sense - I wired it up as per manual and then swapped the wires as I thought that I had made a mistake...............
