Hardware versions and hardware functional state

Hardware functional state FS03
• A firmware update from firmware version V1.x to V2.x is not possible and will be aborted
if attempted.
The original firmware is retained unchanged.
Both TIA Portal and Simatic Manager abort the update and issue a message.
NOTE
Note that firmware version V2.0 is not operable on hardware functional state FS03.
Hardware functional state FS04
• A firmware downgrade from firmware version V2.x to V1.x is not possible and is refused
by the module.
The original firmware version is retained unchanged.
A message is output that the firmware version is not accepted.
Incompatible parameter assignments
Firmware version V2.0 is not compatible with the previous firmware version of the TM NPU.
The TM NPU with firmware version V2.0 cannot be configured with the HSP or the GSDML of
a previous firmware version.
In addition, it is not possible to configure a module with firmware version V1.x with the HSP
or GSDML for firmware version ≥ V2.0.
In both cases, the TM NPU returns the following error message during startup:
• Error code 16#55 - Hardware component not available due to type mismatch
Checking the firmware version of the module
To ensure that the correct firmware version is installed, check the firmware version of your
module. You read out the firmware version using the online editor of the engineering system
you are using.
Use either:
• SIMATIC Manager
• TIA Portal
