TL891 firmware 010F

[Carlos de Oliveira Rosa]

It would like to know where to obtain firmware 010f for the DLT 40/80 (TL891).

Normally we refer to DLT firmware revisions in the format of Vxx (e.g. V86). What I think you're referring to is the hex ascii revision string returned in the product Inquiry. That is in the form SSCC, where SS is the hex servo code revision, and CC is the hex controller code revision. Only the controller code is updatable, so we just refer to that when talking about DLT firmware revisions.

The firmware also has unique personalities based on use. For the 891, you need CPA2 personality.

The CPA2 firmware released for the 891 included V46, V52, V80, and V86.

You might be looking for V15, which was never released in the 891 personality.

Is there a reason why you can't run the most recent firmware (V86)?
