The IPIM module will not accept a firmware upgrade request when it has an
IMPORTANT
active CIP I/O connection.
An active CIP I/O connection exists when the IPIM module has been integrated
into the I/O configuration tree in RSLogix 5000 software. The IPIM module
only accepts a firmware upgrade request when the connection is inhibited. The
connection can be inhibited from I/O Configuration>Enet Module>IPIM
Module Properties>Connection tab (see below). The IPIM module always
accepts a firmware upgrade request if it is connected to a Logix Ethernet module,
but has not been integrated in the I/O configuration tree.
Additionally, the firmware upgrade can be accomplished by disconnecting the
IPIM module from the Logix Ethernet module and establishing a direct
connection to a computer with ControlFlash software.
