6.4 Manual commissioning of SINAMICS drives
Loading firmware for the entire drive system
Procedure:
1. Switch on the system.
During run-up, it will be detected that an older firmware version is present. This causes the
update to start automatically and the firmware is loaded from the CompactFlash card to all
DRIVE-CLiQ components of the drive system (NCU and NX).
Note
Depending on the configuration of the SINAMICS drive line-up, a complete update of the
component firmware takes approximately 10 minutes. The firmware component currently
being updated is indicated with a flashing LED.
2. While the firmware update is running, a progress bar informs you about the current process.
In this case, the following messages are output:
Notice !
The process should not be interrupted! Please wait until the automatic firmware update
completes!
A firmware update is performed for the following drive units of the DRIVE-CLiQ components:
CU_I_3.3:1
CU_NX_3.15:1
3. The following messages are output when the firmware update completes:
Firmware update of the DRIVE-CLiQ components completed.
Notice !
Switch the control system and the entire drive system (all hardware components) off and
then on again to activate the firmware.
Then commissioning can be continued.
CU_I_3.3:1
CU_NX_3.15:1
4. Follow this prompt. You can then continue the commissioning of the drive components
(infeed, motor modules, encoders).
Note
Loading firmware for individual components
If only certain components of the drive system have an older firmware version, the update
also starts automatically and needs correspondingly less time.
