Migrating previous versions of Siemens Prodave driver to version 2.0.1.

After Siemens Prodave driver’s latest update (v2.0.1), the following improvements can stand out:

  • Migration to IOKit 2.00
  • Communication with Siemens Prodave MPI/IE v6.x software
  • Adapted to run on Windows 7

A few points on the driver’s current version:

1. The driver can migrate from version 1.xx to 2.0.1 with tags and links settings compatibility at Extra Settings.

2. Tags can be set up via strings (Symbolic Address).

3. Prodave MPI/IE v6.x software works from Windows XP operating system, and is only compatible with Siemens Prodave v2.0.1 driver.

4.  Prodave v 5.6 (or lower) software does not work from Windows 7 operating system and does not work with this driver’s latest version. In this case, you must use Siemens Prodave driver version 1.01.

5. This driver can be used with Siemens USB adaptors, being an alternative MProt for this type of topology.

6. From version 2.0.1 on, you don’t have to install the Siemens software in order to load and initialize the driver, and its settings can be done on the properties window. On the previous version (1.xx), the driver wasn’t loaded, because it depended on the installation. However, if the version 2.0.1 driver is initialized with no Siemens software installed, there will be a communication error and the log will indicate the Prodave MPI/IE v6.x software was not correctly installed.

NOTE: Further details can be obtained at this version’s Help.
