[Dsg-hallc_controls] Swapping Controlnet modules by Ethernet modules test

[Steve Lassiter]

Hi Brian

It really needs to be done this week. Next week Cryo will start cooling down the transfer line to HallC and the magnet cool down will begin in earnest.
Get up with Mike and see when he is available to work on this.
I will be back middle of next week, after cool down has started I'm afraid.

Steven

Hi Steve,

I filed a ticket with Rockwell and then called them to verify and they confirmed that all the modules will work with v20.04 (which is supported in Windows 10).

All the cards in the primary/secondary redundant chassis do need to be upgraded and they also strongly suggested upgrading to the latest firmware on any communication modules.

The remote I/O firmware doesn't have to be upgraded, but they said it would be a good idea to do so while the system is down if there were any updates available (looks like only the relay modules).



I'm not sure what the schedule is for the remainder of the shut-down, but we'd probably need to schedule this soon if this was going to get done in time for the fall run.
