Hello everyone,
I have a question about updating a firmware for an AB's PLC.
My current PLC information is:
Vendor: Allen-Bradley
Type: 1756-L71S ControlLogix5571S Safety Controller
Revision: 20.13
I would like to upgrade the firmware revision to 30.014 but my question is that the firmware revision changed the name to "Firmware for GuardLogix 5570 Safety (1756-L7) v30.014" instead of "Firmware for 1756-L71S v2X.XX" like older revisions.
Would it be alright to upgrade the firmware from 20.13 (1756-L71S) to the new one? On ControlFLASH, if I open the menu of "1756-L71S", the newest revision I see is the "28.012" and if I open the "GuardLogix 5570 Safety (1756-L7)" menu, I see the revision 30.014 that I downloaded.
I'm not usually of upgrading older PLC to its newest revisions. ControlFLASH accepts my controller information with "GuardLogix 5570 Safety (1756-L7)", but I'm not sure if I could proceed without problems.
Thank you for your responses.
