Introduction to FMT-CP-Config-Extractor_v2.4-5485.exe
This Windows utility enables automated extraction of configuration parameters from Festo CPX-E-EC modules and connected VTUG valve terminals in industrial automation environments. Designed for integration with OMRON NJ-series PLCs via EtherCAT, version 2.4-5485 introduces enhanced compatibility with Sysmac Studio v1.46+ environments and VAEM-L1-S-8-PT electrical interfaces.
Released in Q4 2024 through Festo’s technical support portal, this build specifically addresses configuration synchronization challenges in multi-vendor automation systems. The “-5485” suffix denotes cumulative updates for 5 CVEs related to unsigned firmware validation and session hijacking vulnerabilities disclosed in Festo’s Security Advisory FSA-2024-028.
