Software Release Note
Software release 2.14.5 | MiR robots and MiR fleet Date: 2023-11-08 | Released by Odin Skovsted
Target audience
This software upgrade supports MiR250 hardware version 2.0 with a MiR Shelf Carrier 250. We also recommend this software upgrade for MiR robot users who have experienced the issues described in this release note.
Description
This software upgrade introduces new footprints and a new SICK safety configuration file for MiR250 hardware version 2.0 with a MiR Shelf Carrier 250. The software also resolves other minor issues regarding SICK safety configuration files.
New features
Support for MiR250 hardware version 2.0 with a MiR Shelf Carrier 250 MiR250 hardware version 2.0 with a MiR Shelf Carrier 250 is supported with a new SICK safety configuration and two new MiR250 Shelf Carrier footprints. You can download the SICK safety configuration file from the robot interface under System > Robot setup. You must use the latest version of SICK Safety Designer to apply the new configuration file.
- The MiR250 MK2 shelf carrier base footprint is used when MiR250 Shelf Carrier is not driving with a shelf. It has a more agile design than the footprint of a MiR250 base robot. This is because a MiR250 Shelf Carrier driving without a shelf will never carry any other payload, and because MiR250 Shelf Carrier robots always have a traction kit installed that increases the traction of its wheels.
- The MiR250 MK2 shelf footprint is used when MiR250 Shelf Carrier is driving with a shelf and is large enough to accommodate the largest shelf design supported by MiR. The new MiR250_HW2-0_V3_Shelf SICK configuration file integrates larger protective fields when MiR250 Shelf Carrier drives with a shelf and greater agility when it is not driving with a shelf.
Any changes to the performance specifications will be updated.
Issues solved
SICK safety configuration file for MiR250 and MiR250 Dynamic did not show the correct version The SICK safety configuration file for MiR250 and MiR250 Dynamic hardware version 2.0 was called V1 in the robot interface. This has now been solved so the configuration file for MiR250 and MiR250 Dynamic hardware version 2.0 is called V2 in the robot interface.
Latest SICK safety configuration file for MiR600 and MiR1350 was shown in the wrong place The newest SICK safety configuration file for MiR600 and MiR1350 was shown under Download SICK configurations for previous robot software versions under Robot setup. This has now been solved by placing all SICK safety configuration files under the same list.
Site files can only be imported to a robot or MiR Fleet with the same software version as the site file. This means that if you have any saved site files that you want to be able to apply to your updated robots, you must import them before updating the software, and then export them again after the update.
All robots that are connected to MiR Fleet must be running the same software version as MiR Fleet.
If you are running a software version below 2.13.0.2, remove robots from MiR Fleet before updating the robots.
Always update the hook software before the robot software. Hooks are updated under Hook > Software versions, and robots are updated under System > Software versions.
Updating MiR Fleet and MiR robots
It is important to use the correct procedure when updating MiR products to ensure that the update is successful, that no data is lost, and that the update does not take longer than necessary.
When updating, be aware that:
Your MiR product will stop running during the update procedure.
No data will be removed if the update is successful.
For MiR Fleet, a new license validation is not required.
All connected robots must be updated to the same software version as MiR Fleet.
