2 Performing Firmware Update Procedures to Perform Firmware Up- date This section describes procedures assuming that you finished creating the Memory Card for updating firmware. The procedures to perform firmware update are as follows. If you do not want to reuse the existing various settings, user program, and variables in the CPU Unit after the firmware update, proceed from step 2. - Page 31 2 Performing Firmware Update Configure the DIP switch settings as follows. a) NX701 CPU Units Set pins 1 to 4 to OFF, and pins 5 to 8 to ON on the DIP switch. b) NX502 CPU Units, NX102 CPU Units, and NX1P2 CPU Units Set all pins 1 to 4 on the DIP switch to ON.
- Page 32 2 Performing Firmware Update Connect cables to the built-in EtherNet/IP ports and built-in EtherCAT port. Turn ON the power supply to the CPU Unit. The procedures to be performed differ as shown below depending on whether to reuse the ex- isting various settings, user program, and variables in the CPU Unit after the firmware update or not to reuse them.
