PDM15 firmware version

Postby SXD on Tue Jun 01, 2021 12:48 am

Setting up my new PDM15 on the weekend I ran into a problem where the PDM manager said the firmware was a newer version and I needed newer software.
I was using the latest version on the website.

On the USB stick included with the PDM I found a newer beta version of the PDM manager, but it had the same issue.

Reported firmware version on the PDM was V1.91N

I was able to downgrade the firmware to whatever was included with the PDM manager and it seems to work, but it seems a bit ridiculous to ship something with unusable firmware in it.

Hi,

The N version of the Firmware is the production test firmware, this can be overwritten with the current release version without issues.

The PDM's are supposed to ship with the current release firmware loaded, I'll find out how this has been sent with the N version of firmware, are you able to supply the serial number of the PDM so that I can track it thanks.

Rev 'N' is required for the latest revision of the PCB & production test, Currently Rev 'Q' is going through the test process for Beta release.
