6.10.2 BPPC-based Mark VIe I/O Packs
Mark VIe I/O packs typically have a part number that ends with 'H1B'. Refer to the section,
available components. There are several guidelines to keep in mind when BPPB-based I/O packs are migrated to BPPC-based
I/O packs.
The minimum firmware for a particular BPPC-based I/O pack is listed in GEH-6721_Vol_II or volume III in that particular
component chapter, subsection, Compatibility. Firmware can be installed from the ControlST DVD onto the HMI without
upgrading the system (with minimum ControlST V04.04).
