Wrong Firmware Version

Was bedeutet E2-40 ?

The Safety PLC is operating with an incorrect or incompatible firmware version. This can lead to unexpected behavior, functional limitations, or complete system failure, compromising safety.

• The firmware version loaded on the SM560-S Safety PLC does not match the version specified in the engineering project or is incompatible with the installed hardware revision.
• An incorrect firmware file was inadvertently downloaded to the Safety PLC during a maintenance or upgrade procedure.
• The engineering software version being used is not compatible with the firmware version currently running on the Safety PLC (e.g., older software trying to manage newer firmware features).
• Firmware corruption on the Safety PLC's internal memory, leading to an incorrect version identifier being reported or causing unstable operation.
• Mismatch between the firmware version of the Safety PLC CPU and specific safety I/O modules, leading to communication errors.
