Software installation/update and data backup

PTP network connection

The functions described in this section (software installation/update) require a network
connection to an external computer (PG/PC) which contains an enabled network access
directory.
If the SINUMERIK 840Di sl is not part of a larger network (WAN, LAN), a simple PTP (peer-
to-peer) connection via Ethernet and TCP/IP can be established for service applications.

Establishing a network connection

For the network link, the PCU 50.3 is connected with the external computer directly via a
crossed Ethernet cable (twisted pair crossed 10baseT/100baseTX Ethernet cable).
