Downloading new firmware using TFTP without WBM and CLI

Firmware
The firmware is signed and encrypted. This ensures that only firmware created by Siemens
can be downloaded to the device.
Operating the button
To load new firmware, you require the button. When pressing the button, remember the
information in the appropriate operating instructions.
Press the "RESET" button on the SCALANCE XB-200 with only slight force.
Press the "SELECT/SET" button on the SCALANCE XC-200.
Press the "RESET" button on the SCALANCE XP-200 as far as the pressure point.
Procedure with Microsoft Windows
Using TFTP, you can supply a device with new firmware even when it cannot be reached
using WBM or CLI. This section explains the procedure based on the example of Microsoft
Windows.
Follow the steps below to load new firmware using TFTP:
1. Turn off the power to the device.
2. Press the button and reconnect the power supply to the device while holding down the
button.
3. Hold down the button until the red fault LED "F" starts to flash.
4. Release the button as long as the red error LED is still flashing..
Note

The bootloader of the device waits in this status for a new firmware file that you can
download by TFTP.
5. Connect a PC to port 0.1 via an Ethernet cable.
6. Assign an IP address to the device using DHCP or the Primary Setup Tool.
