2 Firmware File Names

2.1 Existing Names

Names used today (2011)

CIFX (netX 100) cifxdpm.nxf

COMX (netX 100) comxecm.nxf

NT 50 N5COSASC.NXF

NT 100 NTCOSCOM.NXF

NB 100 NBEISCOM.NXF

NIC 50 NICMBCPS.NXF

NICPNSFO.NXF

NPLC 100 (CoDeSys) NPC1CDPM.NXF

NPLC 100 (IBH S7) S7PLC.NXF

Problem: Missing (2011)

COMX 10, NIC 10, NJ 10, NJ 50, NJ 100, NJ 500

2.2 Requirements

Keep existing

SYCON.net uses for NT 50 (N5xxxxxx.NXF), NT 100 (NTxxxxxx.NXF), NB 100 (NBxxxxxx.NXF). These names have to be kept as they are!

netX Configuration Tool uses CIFXxxx.NXF respectively NICMBxxx.NXF. These names have to be kept as they are!

L51NPSDL.NXF is used for Firmware for NL 51N-DPL

Use new systematic for new types

netX 10 and netX 50 and netX 100/500 each has its own firmware compilation! As a result of this, the netX type has to be part of the firmware name.

COMX will have PROFIBUS-DP Slave for COMX 10 and COMX 100

NJ will have hardware with netX 10, netX 50, netX 100 and netX 500.

netIC will have NIC 10-CCS (and NIC 50-CCS)

2.3 Firmware File Names

2.3.1 Overview Structure

The firmware name has to match the 8+3 (DOS) convention. The 8 characters are specified below. The file extension for a firmware file is always .NXF and for a firmware module .NXO.

2.3.5 8. Letter – Hardware Compatibility Index (HWI)

The 8. letter is exactly the value of the Hardware Compatibility Index, which is in the security memory.

0 (zero), 1 (one), 2 (two), etc.

2.3.6 Examples

netLINK

NL 50-MPI: The NL 50-MPI has to be compatible with the NL-MPI. Therefore it has its own firmware name, which is NL50MPI.E50

NL 50N-MPI-ATVISE: LN510030.NXF

NL 10U-DP with PROFIBUS-DP Master: LU501000.NXF

netPLC

NPLC-T100-DP/S7/ATVISE: ST210310.NXF
