Confirming Board Versions

Enova DGX enclosures and boards typically ship with the latest firmware available. If the firmware on any board installed
in the enclosure does not match the firmware version the enclosure expects, a firmware mismatch occurs. To resolve a
firmware mismatch, the latest available firmware .kit file (which contains firmware for both boards and enclosure) must be
sent to the enclosure.

Confirm Board Versions

Launch NetLinx Studio and connect to the DGX Master.
2.
Open the OnLine Tree tab, right-click in the Workspace Bar field and select Refresh System Online Tree.
3.
Expand the 5002 device and confirm compatible board versions (or mismatch).
4.
If a mismatch is present, send the latest firmware .kit file to the enclosure.
