New firmware makes AFD, AFDII, AFDIII, & Phase One AF bodies inoperable with IQ series backs.

With the recent 5.10.1 firmware release for the Phase One IQ digital backs, we have discovered that AFD bodies are no longer compatible with IQ2 series. Furthermore, because the firmware is now the same for both IQ1 and IQ2 digital backs, IQ1 series backs which could previously communicate with AFD bodies will no longer work properly if updated to 5.10.1. This has been confirmed by Phase One.

If needed, you can downgrade your IQ1 series digital back firmware back to 5.00.51, but IQ2 digital backs will still not work with AFD bodies.

If you have any questions regarding this, don’t hesitate to communicate with our tech support team for more information!
