Issue
I have to replace a faulty Xenta 301 but found that the existing Xenta 301 was system version 1.
The system consists of about 12 Xenta controllers sitting on a Menta only network using .nwc,ndb network configuration tool.
Environment
TAC Xenta 300
TAC Menta
Cause
New devices are delivered with version 3.
Resolution
As TAC Xenta system program version 1 and version 3 can not work on the same network, downgrade the new device to replace the faulty one.
- Download TAC Xenta 300 system program version 1.17
- Use Download Wizard as normal to download the system program, however, going from version 3 to version 1, do NOT keep old application in the Download Wizard. Select Clear Application.
- Download the Menta application and network configuration manually via the serial cable. You could use the actual TAC Menta versions to do this.
