Firmware release notes for Eaton Gigabit Network Card for UPS (Network-M2, P/N 744-
A3983)

Firmware : Release 3.1.12

Date : 2024/01/19
Eaton (c) 2024
===================================================================================
=======

Upgrade/Compatibility:
This section describes the considerations for upgrading from a previous
release. It is not recommended to upgrade to 3.x.x from 1.x.x directly. 1.x.x
firmware versions should first be upgraded to 2.1.5 as an intermediate step and
then upgraded to 3.x.x. Note that upgrading to 2.x.x from any 1.x.x firmware
revision will clear all alarms and events from the user interface. A backup of
these alarms and events is available through RESTful API. See
https://www.eaton.com/network-m2 for detailed RESTful API documentation.

Earlier versions can be upgraded to 3.1.8 according to the procedure described

in the manual. Downgrade from 1.6.x or above to 1.5.x or below is not possible.
Beyond this limitation, downgrade to earlier versions is possible but not
recommended.
