Hi!
I recently bought a NI-3100/ICS and NI-4100 for learning purposes at my work at very basic level.
I know these are really old and might allready be updated.
Ive seen that there are a 4.x firmware and i wonder if that is a version that i can upgrade to?
I will attach a screenshot from web gui with version informations.
The units are allready configured to be used for LAN/ethernet.

yes you can upgrade the Firmware to v4. It makes sense, as a lot of Duet modules require v4 Master firmware,
https://www.amx.com/de/softwares/ni-series-x100-duet-v-4-master-firmware-v4-1-419
Read information there. After upgrade, check it the Duet Mem is set to at least 12MB. (telnet/console, GET DUET MEM; if it's lower, do SET DUET MEM and follow instruction).
There is also still a hotfix available (afaik 4.1.430) but it is not (longer) online. I may check for it when I'm back in the office end of the week.
You may also check if the Timekeeper is still working, as it's required to backup clock and Persistent variables. I can also check for the exact part number end of the week, it's a part that can be ordered 3rd party.
NI-x100 series Master Firmware 4.1.433 last hotfix:

The "Timekeeper" is the yellow cube on the NI mainboard.
