Firmware Version for Smart-UPS RT 6000 XL

[BillP]

What is the latest Firmware Version for a Smart-UPS RT 6000 XL?

I tried to look it up in the Support Software and Firmware section however I haven't had any luck. The unit says the Model Number is an  AP9606, Hardware Version G9.

I am currently running sumx301.bin and aos301.bin

I am getting repetitive alarms and was hoping there was a new firmware available so I can adjust the alarms individually instead of in mass by criticallity.

You're running a pretty old network card, that one still be upgraded however the latest versions are aos3.2.6a and sumx3.2.6b. These used to be available for many years on the  APC FTP site  ( the bin files for this):

ftp://ftp.apcc.com/apc/public

However, when I try to access this now I get a 404... what;'s up, APC ?!

By the way , what alarms are you getting ? If they are hardware alarms you'll still get them with newer firmware...you may get even more than before !

AP9606 Network Management Card is older and discontinued. However, you are not at the latest version. You can update it via FTP and put the AOS upgrade on first and then the sumx after disconnecting to let the card reboot. Instructions for manual upgrades are outlined here if you're not familiar -> How do I upgrade the firmware on an APC Network Management Card? | FAQs | Schneider Electric US

The files are here for AP9606 (both the AOS and sumx)->  ftp://ftp.apc.com/apc/public/hardware/webcard/firmware/security/v326b/ (this is working for me currently and so does the link Battman referenced)

I did some investigating though. I don't think AP9606 allows you to customize event notifications by event. I checked with this latest firmware. You'll only have that function in AP9617/18/19 or AP9630/31 cards unfortunately.

I am getting:

"Failed Internal Diagnostic Self-test"

Thanks for the link. I will see about getting the updated firmware.
