IO-Board firmware for PCD3 WAC

Firmware IO-Board firmware for PCD3 WAC

This is a firmware ford the IO-Board integrated in to the PCD3 WAC and not the FW for the PCD3 WAC himself.

On this FW the error in relation with the overflow status flag of analogue inputs was fixed.

This flag was set to high in the middle

Good to know

When upgrading from firmware 1.10.xx or 1.14.xx to 1.16.xx/1.20.xx the memory of the PCD will be lost, see FAQ 101535.

The differences between firmware version 1.16.69 and 1.22.xx are listed in FAQ 101820.

The differences between firmware version 1.16.27 and 1.16.52 are listed in FAQ 101624.

The differences between firmware version 1.14.23 and 1.16.27 are listed in FAQ 101624.

For programming the PCD3 Wide area controller, PG5 2.0.150 or later is to be used.
