bialy100k is no longer a member and I and not sure about Cary.

I pulled the cover off the spare 6442S[EC] and took this pict for anyone who is interested in checking the hardware numbers. There is no seal of any kind that is broken by taking the cover off.

If anyone else would care to add their info, I will update this as we travel down the road. Thanks Gene

I have updated my controller with usb connection
RDC6442G
from
RDC-V8.00.47 HMI-V4.01.20
to
RDC-V8.00.50 HMI-V4.01.20
with firmware file RDC644XG-8.00.50.upd uploaded here by @Savio Thecnic

Now it read U-files created with rdworks 8.01.24 and works.

I took the risk to brick my controller but i was lucky this does not mean that everyone will be lucky...
Firmware update is very risky to brick your controller permanently so do not do it.
