Firmware for Tibbo Devices

Important note regarding EM203 and DS203 devices

EM203 and DS203 devices will ONLY work with serial-over-Ethernet firmware V3.70 (or higher). Loading any earlier firmware into these devices will make them inoperable and you will have to reload the firmware again -- this time through the serial port! The EM203A device does not have this limitation and can use older firmware as well.

How To Upgrade

Firmware of Tibbo Devices can be upgraded through the serial port or network. Serial upgrades always work while upgrading the firmware through the network has several limitations. Some earlier Tibbo Devices do not support network upgrades at all. All newer devices do support network upgrades but only when correct (older) firmware file is already loaded into the Device at the moment of upgrade procedure.

This means that by loading a wrong file you will render further network upgrades impossible until you load a correct firmware file through the serial port.

Which firmware file to use for upgrade depends on the model number of your Tibbo Device and sometimes on how you wish to perform the upgrade — through the serial port or network. Make sure you choose correct firmware file!

Upgrades can be performed using the upgrade function of our DS Manager software, a part of Device Server Toolkit (DST). You can download the DST here.

Notice that there is a relationship between the firmware version you are using on Tibbo Devices and the minimum DST version that should be installed on the PC to take a full advantage of this firmware. Hence, if you are upgrading the firmware you may need to upgrade the DST as well.


Firmware for EM500, EM1000 and other programmable devices

The firmware files below are actually compiled versions of the Serial-over-IP Tibbo BASIC application, fully compatible with our DS Manager software.

The main thing you need to know about your EM500/EM1000/EM1206-based device is that you might not see it in DS Manager. If that's the case, your device is probably not running the Serial-over-IP application (i.e, it's a "blank slate", and isn't communicating with DS Manager). Install Device Explorer and you should see your device; then upload the firmware via Device Explorer.

Firmware for EM120, EM200, EM203(A), DS203(A)

These Devices can be upgraded through the serial port or network. There are two firmware "builds" depending on the Device model number

Title Version Date File

R build, for EM120 3.70 01/11/2008 EM_370R.BIN
D build, for EM200, EM203(A), DS203(A) 3.71 09/05/2011 EM_371D.BIN

Firmware for EM100, DS100

The firmware below is for the following devices:

  • EM100-03/-04,
  • DS100R-03/-04,
  • DS100B-00/-01/-02

Choose the SN build if you are performing an upgrade through the serial port, and the S build if you're upgrading through the network.

Title Version Date File

SN build, for serial upgrades 3.36 29/5/2007 EM_336SN.BIN
S build, for network upgrades 3.36 29/5/2007 EM_336S.BIN

Older devices: Tibbo no longer releases firmware upgrades for the EM100-00/-01/-02, or the DS100-00/-01/-02. All these devices have not been in production for years.
