5.8.5.13 Firmware Version Information
Firmware version information shows the ACU firmware version information. This
allows General Dynamics personnel to determine which versions of firmware are
being used in the ACU. The information includes the ACU version, factory
configuration options, build time, printed circuit board (PCB) revision, complex
programmable logic device (CPLD) version, bootloader EEPROM version, and
network controller version. The 7200 ACU firmware has both a version number
and a configuration. The configuration is displayed on the line below the version
information as a 32 bit HEX coded label called “ACU-CONFIG”. The center column
defines the firmware configuration that is included when its respective bit is set to
a one. The third column lists what the HEX coded value would be assuming that
only one optional configuration was added to the standard factory 7200 ACU
firmware. It is possible to have multiple configurations combined together in the
same 7200 ACU firmware release.
