11.1 Upgrading software releases
Step 3: Update the STARTER project
Install the SSP that matches the new SW version (e.g. SSP SINAMICS DCM V1.2).
SSPs for different versions of the same drive can be simultaneously installed in STARTER.
Open the existing STARTER project (that refers to an old unit version). Right-click on the unit
in the project navigator and select "Target device" → "Device version...". Select the new
device version and confirm with "Change version". The project is converted to the new unit
version.
Note
STARTER does not support a "downgrade" of the software version (e.g. V1.2 to V1.1).
Step 4: Load into the target system, RAM to ROM
Load the project into the drive (load into the target system) and permanently save the
parameter assignment (carry out RAM to ROM).

Upgrading the DCC technology option

Step 5: Update the DCC technology option (DCBLIB) and the DCC charts
It is not absolutely necessary to upgrade the DCC library. Only upgrade the DCC library if
you wish to use functions that the old DCC library does not support.
It is only possible to upgrade the DCC library via the associated STARTER project. While
upgrading, it is not permissible that there is a DCC chart in the drive.
After you have upgraded the unit software according to the previous chapter, update the
DCC technology option as follows:
● Establish a connection to the drive using STARTER.
● Delete the parameter assignment and DCC charts in the drive, by setting p0976 to 200.
● After the system was reset via p0967=200, re-establish a connection to the drive via
● Import the new DCC library (see Chapter "Drive Control Chart")
510
After deleting, the parameterization including the DCC charts only exist in STARTER.
