There have been some restrictions concerning the usage of the S-Bus parity mode as master (SM1) on the PCD3.M and PCD2.M5 CPU. Since firmware version 1.10.51 these restrictions are eliminated.
Yes, but only on the PCD3.M5547 and on the PCD2.M487
Since summer 2010 the PCD3 family (PCD3.M2xxx, PCD3.M3xxx, PCD3.M5xxx and PCD3.M6xxx) do support the "full-duplex mode" and Auto-MDIX on the Ethernet port. The PCD systems PCD1.M2, PCD2.M5 and the PCD3.T665/665 as well as the MB Panels PCD7.D4xx do support the "full-duplex mode" and Auto-MDIX since the first hardware version.
With PG5 1.4.120 and PCD3.M5/M6 it is not possible to use the internal backup memory
No, do not connect the RJ45 connector of a Ethernet Port of a PCD directly to Power over Ethernet (PoE). The RJ45 Ethernet port of the PCD will be destroyed if connected directly to PoE (Mode B) because our Ethernet port (PCD7.F655 or the integrated Ethernet ports on the PCD1.M0/M2, PCD2.M5 and PCD3 and all Panels with Ethernet ports) are not designed for this purpose.
. Remark Please note that in case the option "Full RS-232 handshaking on Port 0" (for modem connections) is checked in the hardware settings of a PCD3.M5 or a PCD2.M5, the PGU signal (DSR) can no longer [...] are connected to PCD3.Mxxx or PCD2.M480 PLC's over Profi S-Bus, the terminal loses the communication after some time and get even frozen. This problem is corrected in the new boot, FW and driver. The PCD8.D81 V 5.09 is needed , the attached files have to be copied in it (see procedure below). It is also necessary to update the PCD3.Mxxx and PCD2.M480 FW with the version PCD3.Mxxx_023.blk / PCD2.M
