AP9617/AP9619 Firmware for AP9225 MasterSwitch Plus Units

What is the latest firmware for AP9617/AP9619 for AP9225 MasterSwitch Plus Units?  I previously saw there was a firmware that would support these cards on these units, but I can't find it searching now.  Thanks!

I have an AP9225 with an AP9606 management card.  I would like to replace that card with AP9619 to gain the environmental probe.   This discussion suggests that it should work, but I thought I'd ask to confirm before tracking down the replacement card.

It would appear that the attachment in your response is the missing ingredient, once I have the card.  Is this still the case, or have there been any subsequent updates that would be better?   I haven't examined the file, or previously applied updates to this unit.  If you have any suggestions on that front, I'm certainly interested.

Thanks

That is still the latest firmware for this hardware combination. However, the firmware is over 10 years old at this point (the product has been end-of-life for a long time) and there are many known security vulnerabilities in that firmware. In addition to all of the SSL issues that have come up in the last few years, that release may be old enough to still have the backdoor password enabled (I didn't install that firmware on an AP961x to confirm this).

Current products would be the AP79xx or AP89xx models.
