This Service Pack can only be installed on top of 

• an existing Release 6.5 installation, or
• a DS1006MC Service Pack 1.0.1 installation.

DS1006MC Service Pack 2 provides the software required for using the full multi-core support of a multi-core DS1006 board.
It also corrects some errors with the preceding DS1006MC Service Pack 1.0.1. For details refer to the ReadMe file.

Boot firmware files for use with Releases not supporting DS1006 multi-core boards

Starting with Service Pack 2 for dSPACE Release 6.5 the DS1006 boot firmware (Vs. 2.1.6 or higher) is not compatible to dSPACE Releases without multi-core support anymore.

 

Thus the boot firmware must be downgraded to a version prior 2.0 when using a DS1006 under Release 6.5 without Service Pack or prior Releases. Below you find the required boot firmware versions for DS1006 multi-core boards (Rev. 6) and single-core boards (Rev. 3).

The ZIP files comprise the firmware as well as the stand-alone firmware programming tool firmware_update_ds1006.exe.
Download the required ZIP file and extract its contents into a new directory. Open a command line box and enter firmware_update_ds1006.exe to see the program's help page.
Typically this dedicated firmware flashing tool works much faster than the update with ControlDesk.

• Firmware 1.3.5 for DS1006 Multi-Core Boards (Rev. 6)
• Firmware 1.2.26 for DS1006 Single-Core Boards (Rev. 3)
