TX-I/O
A firmware update or upgrade from TX-I/O modules is not possible (except for TXI1.OPEN, TXI2.OPEN, and
TXI2-S.OPEN).
To load firmware, protocol applications, and the configuration to the TX Open modules, use the TX Open
Tool, which is available as a part of XWP.
See
Desigo Xworks Plus Online Help
(CM111006).
23.2.10 Backward compatibility
Desigo software and libraries are downwards compatible. Desigo products can process data compiled with
earlier versions.
Restrictions
After upgrading Desigo project data for a Desigo software product to the newest version, the data can only
be accessed or processed with the appropriate software/LibSets for the newest version.
23.2.11 Engineering compatibility
All project data on all system levels must have the same LibSet with the same LibSet version number for
unlimited engineering of tested Desigo solutions (libraries).
To use the current library extensions, all project data must be upgraded to the current version.
When engineering a tool project, all tool installations must have the same version as the project.
23.2.12 Compatibility with Desigo Configuration Module (DCM)
The Desigo Configuration Module (DCM) version supplied with the relevant Desigo system covers the
available Desigo product scope.
When importing DCM projects from earlier DCM versions, the project is converted to the status and options
of the current DCM version. After conversion, the project data can only be revised in the current DCM
version.
DCM projects from DCM version 5.0 support import.
DCM requires Microsoft Office.
Note
Automation stations PXC4 and PXC5, as well as the DXR1 range are not supported in DCM.
23.2.13 Compatibility with Desigo PX / Desigo room automation
The modular Desigo PX automation stations / system controllers PXC00/50/100/200-E.D are supported as
Desigo room automation system function controllers for the PXC3 room automation stations. For
performance reasons, use PXC00-E.D where possible.
The local operator unit PXM10 cannot be used together with the following devices:
● PXC3 room automation stations
● PX KNX (PXC001.D/PXC001-E.D)
● PXG3.L/PXG3.M (BACnet router)
● PXG3.Wxxx (web interface BACnet/IP of Desigo Control Point)
No I/O modules may be connected to the system controller LonWorks PXC00(-E).D.
The modular series PXC…D (Desigo PX) and the PXC3 room automation stations do not have a PPS2
connection.
23.2.14 Compatibility with Desigo RX tool
RXT10.5 supports only system integration via the PXX L11/L12 Controller.
You can only use LON standard tools NL220 (Newron System) or LonMaker (Echelon) with project data
from LonWorks PXC00(-E).D or PXC50/100/200 (-E).D system controllers.
