Has anyone else noticed that the latest firmware update for the 250-1 (3.7 and 3.72) does not reset all the timers that are located in a stage when that stage is jumped from? Prior to 3.7( using 3.6), I had no problem with timers resetting after the jump. Now I do. Anyone else notice this?

That is a firmware bug. As you found, V3.70 and V3.72 have the bug. When a stage jumps to more than 2 stages at the same time, the timer in the stage stays on. New firmware V3.73 fixed the problem. It is available on our web site.

We found another bugs related stage instructions. http://forum1.automationdirect.com/board/frown.gif
Please use new firmware V3.80 on the web.
Sorry for this situation.

Before I start upgrading to v3.8 are there any other bugs I should worry about?

As far as we tested, this new firmware is executing stage programs correctly.

While we are on the subject of firmware updates, did anyone notice the firmware history is now listed, and even better, the firmware version is now accessible via ladder logic?
