Upgrade RobotWare

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade RobotWare from 5.15.02 to 5.61 and I have a few questions.

Where can I find the main computer unit type ? DSQC1000, DSQC600....

Does 5.61 work exclusively for DSQC1000 only and not on old units?

I have created a back up and used that to recreate a system file.  When I get to select RobotWare, I chose to use a different RobotWare but only the old version showed up.  I have multiple RobotWares installed on my computer, from 5.15.02 to 5.61.  How do I get the newer version to show up on the pull down menu?  I have also tried to create a system file using an backup, saved, then try to modify it with RobotStudio but still did not see any other versions.  I am using RobotStudio 5.61.

 

Thanks,

    Hi,
    5.61 works exclusively on the new main computer types. 
    If you have a robot controller that was delivered with RobotWare 5.15.xx or earlier, you can not upgrade it to 5.61. 
    But you can upgrade it to the latest 5.15 version, which is 5.15.07.
