    (http://siemens.siprotec.de/download_neu/index_d.htm) or received from Customer Care. A wrong file uploaded to the module will be rejected by EN100 firmware, and the connection may be reset. Please see system log for more information if the upload fails for any reason.
  • Page 11: Figure 4-5 - Web Site For Firmware Update Status

    7. Press the button „Send File“ to upload the firmware file to the EN100 module. After successful upload of the firmware the update process shows automatically the page “firmware update status” and the flashing of the uploaded code into the FLASH is started automatically.
  • Page 12: Figure 4-6 - Web Site For Firmware Update Status - Flashing

    9. You need to press the “Refresh upload statistics” Button to know if the flashing is finished. After successful flashing the activation link “Now restart EN100 and wait 60 seconds...” is visible in the bottom of the page. For further actions please read chapter 4.3.
  • Page 13 4.2.2.2 Firmware activation In general the module firmware can be activated by reset and restart of the EN100 – module. Note: Depending on the device firmware there are two different ways for activation required (please refer the table in chapter 5.1).

    After successful update, you will get this status site. Please refresh the status site with the “Refresh upload statistic” to get a current status site. If the reboot link “Now restart EN100 and wait 60 seconds” appears you may verify whether an upload was successful with the system log site (http://<ip-address>/printf).

    The device restart and activate the new FPGA – image which activates PRP. NOTE: You may always repeat an upload of a file (EN100 or FPGA) before reboot on the device or EN100 firmware or power supply abruption.
  • Page 20 If the FPGA – image is flashed and activated in all SIPROTEC 4 devices the devices can be used in the PRP – network. Switches in the network branch B can be switched ON. Both ports of the module now send equal PRP- telegrams and receive PRP telegrams from the network.
  • Page 21: Appendix

    5.1 Software reset capable devices The software reset feature of the EN100 module is only available for a set of devices greater a specific device firmware version. E.g. the software reset is possible at device 7SJ80 together with the application software version equal or greater V04.60.16.
  • Page 22: Error Handling During Upload

    The power supply of the device shall not be switched off during upload. If the power supply fails you get an inconsistent state of EN100 module firmware. The EN100 may not be boot again. At this point it is possible to upload the EN100 Firmware over front interface with the device specific FW setup only.
