Firmware Update Mode

The EDS001 firmware consists of the ETM001 firmware plus the DNP3-specific firmware,
and an Emerson installed license. All these elements are available on the support web-site
https://www.emerson.com/Industrial-Automation-Controls/support.
Each firmware upgrade may be obtained from the support web-site as a uniquely-identified
ZIP file. The ZIP file must be downloaded to a computer which can be connected to the host
RX3i CPU. Each ZIP file includes instructions specific to the target product.
The updated firmware may then be passed to the EDS001 via the host RX3i CPU using the
WinLoader utility. The CPU must be in STOP mode in order to deliver the firmware upgrade
via the Serial port on the CPU.

has been switched to RUN mode, the EDS001 module will reboot using the new firmware.
