Firmware update via memory card
Overview
Load firmware and
transfer it to memory card
108
1.
Switch the operating mode switch of your CPU in position STOP.
2.
Execute an overall reset.
3.
Open the CPU web page and select the 'Firmware' tab.
4.
Click at 'Browse ...' and navigate to the firmware file in your working directory.
5.
Click at 'Upload' .
ð The firmware file is checked for plausibility and transmitted to the CPU. After the
transfer, the firmware versions are matched and listed with the note if a firm-
ware update is possible.
6.
You start the firmware update by tipping the operating mode switch downwards to
MR and then leaving the switch in STOP position.
ð During the update process, the LEDs SF and FC are alternately blinking. This
may last several minutes.
7.
The update is successful finished when the LEDs PW, SF, ST, FC and SD are on. If
they are blinking fast, an error occurred.
8.
Turn power OFF and ON.
ð After the start-up, the CPU is ready for operation with the new firmware. The
current firmware version can be determined via the web page of the CPU.
n
For the firmware update via memory card an accordingly prepared memory card must
be in the CPU during the start-up.
So a firmware files can be recognized and assigned with start-up, a pkb file name is
n
reserved for each hardware revision, which begins with "pb" and differs in a number
with 6 digits.
n
In the VIPASystem SLIO CPU, the pkb file name can be shown via the web page.
n
After PowerON and operating mode switch of the CPU in STOP, the CPU checks if
there is a pkb file at the memory card. If this firmware version is different to the
existing firmware version, this is indicated by blinking of the LEDs and the firmware
may be installed by an update request.
The procedure here describes the update from the CPU firmware version
V2.4.0. The update of an older version to the firmware version V2.4.0 has
to be done via pkg files. For this refer to the corresponding manual for
your CPU version.
1.
Go to www.vipa.com
2.
Click 'Service Support è Downloads è Firmware'.
3.
Via 'System SLIO è CPU' navigate to your CPU and download the zip file to your
PC.
4.
Unzip the zip file and copy the pgb file to the root directory of your memory card.
CAUTION!
With a firmware update an overall reset is automatically executed. If your
program is only available in the load memory of the CPU it is deleted!
Save your program before executing a firmware update!
