dougjr17 Posted December 10, 2018 Posted December 10, 2018 ISSUE 1) Based on README firmware descriptions and given that I have a CK3E unit, one would think that I need to download: powerpmacARM_Posix .. Omron uPower PMAC (CK3E Acontis EtherCAT) but in FILEDEPOT we have all sorts of inconsistent nomenclature except never powerpmacARM_POSIX, so what exactly do I download for a CK3E unit? There is a powerpmacARM download - is that the right one? Here is what README says: Firmware Descriptions powerpmac460ex ...... Power UMAC 460 CPU and Power Brick powerpmac465 ........ Power UMAC/CPCI/Clipper 465 CPU powerpmacARM ........ Power UMAC ARM (hardware not yet released) powerpmacARM_Posix .. Omron uPower PMAC (CK3E Acontis EtherCAT) powerpmacWIN_Posix .. Omron IPC Windows (NY51[]-A Acontis EtherCAT) powerpmacX86_Posix .. Omron IPC Linux (Acontis EtherCAT) Please see the "Release Notes" folder for firmware update information. ISSUE 2) Where are the links for version 2.4.1.x or 2.4.1.2 firmware download? See attached screenshot.
steve.milici Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 All firmware files for the CK3E/CK3M have been removed from the Forums' FileDepot. Please contact support@deltatau.com to discuss why you need to upgrade firmware. By phone call 800-556-6766. Select "1" for Technical Support. Then select "4" for Omron Delta Tau.
AnthonyLH Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 Thank you Steve, On Deltatau website there is only one IDE, the IDE 4.2.0.13. Can this IDE be used with all PPMAC products? CK3E (ARM_Posix), PowerBricks (460ex) , PowerClippers (apm866xx)...

dougjr17 Posted October 18, 2021 Author Posted October 18, 2021 Are firmware versions now secret since filedepot is gone? How do I know if 2.6.0.0 is latest on a CK3M?
Omron Forums Support Posted October 18, 2021 Posted October 18, 2021 For firmware files, please reach out to your local Omron Tech Support representative.
Alex Anikstein Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 For reference, that is the current answer. We are still looking for a better solution. We hope to be able to post firmware on the site for Omron in the Americas shortly (preferably under the individual product pages), though this is still in progress. We likely will not post all firmware versions there, however the intent would be to have at least the last few releases. For a bit of the "behind the curtain" stuff (and to also answer your question about 2.6.0.0), the attached picture is one of the current proposals. Black Box = Doesn't exist and/or not released White Box = Previously released Yellow Box = Released, proposed to post online (Note that the "merged" boxes mean that a single firmware file works on multiple form factors) The hope would also be that, if we can resume posting firmware publicly, other regions would follow suit and supply it to their customers in a similar manner.
