Firmware update

The firmware of the ASM 456 can be updated via PROFIBUS. You have several options for

updating the firmware:

● With STEP 7 Classic

● With STEP 7 Basic / Professional (TIA Portal)

Note

Firmware update with connected RF680R/RF685R readers

Note that when the RF680R/RF685R are connected to the ASM 456, the firmware update of

the readers must be performed via the WBM of the readers. You can start the WBM from the

TIA Portal.

Requirements

The ASM is connected to PROFIBUS with functional DP communication (basic

communication only, no application required). The firmware update can be made regardless

of whether an application is running.

If the firmware update is performed while an application is running, this can slow down the

update and command execution.

Make sure that the required update files (*.upd) are stored locally.
