7.6 General Mode
Firmware version 6.5 supports both Prodigy 1.0 and Prodigy 2.0. Prodigy 2.0 is NOT compatible
with Prodigy 1.0. The protocol selection can be done, for back-compatibility, using the
FMQuadro General Mode Configuration page. Please make sure that all the units within the
same network use the same protocol version. No mixed operation of Prodigy 1.0 and Prodigy 2.0 are
allowed. In case of expansion of current network deployments two options are available:
1.
Setting the newly added units with Firmware 6.5 or above to operate in Prodigy 1.0.
2.
Upgrading the previously deployed units with a Firmware 6.5 or above and set them to
operate in Prodigy 2.0.
We recommend option 1.if there is no specific issue in the network.
Every FM unit has three possible modes of operations:
Bridge Mode
Mesh Point Mode
Mesh End Mode
The FM unit factory default mode is Bridge. The Mesh Point mode must be used for any unit
