EV3: Hardware Version

Hello all,

I went through some source code of the EV3 and found a relation to the HwId which is what is shown in the Info Menu. The actual hardware should be v1.0 which is also shown in the user manual. My brick shows v0.60 in the Info Menu.

As I understand that is no problem in any way for the firmware but I wonder if there are any v1.0 hardware EV3's. Which hardware version is your EV3 showing?

As a matter of fact that number is stored in an eeprom and may be changed...


Thank you :-)

Thank you for your post. You are talking about the firmware while I am wondering about the hardware version. You can get it by the settings menu choose "Brick Info". Then you get

Brick HW:
V0.60
Brick FW:
V1.03H
ID:
...

I meant the first value.

Thank you.

All production EV3s show a hardware version of 0.60, to my knowledge.
