Running Two Versions of 3DM
Although you can view information about 7000- and 8000-series controllers
in 3DM 2, some features of version 2 are only available for the 9000-series,
because they require that the firmware contain associated capabilities. When
this is the case, a message appears in the 3DM page indicating that the feature
is not available for the current controller.
The scheduling feature is one that works differently in 9000-series controllers
and earlier controllers. If you want to set the schedule for background tasks
for a 7000- or 8000-series controller, you must do so by using 3DM version
1.x.
If you have multiple controllers in the same system, and the controllers are
from different series, it is possible to install and run both 3DM 2 and 3DM
version 1.x on the same system.
Note:
If two different versions of 3DM are both running, they have
to be listening on different ports.
In addition, alarms cannot be captured by both versions.
