9. Firmware Upgrade
The Anybus CompactCom 40 PROFINET IRT firmware can be updated either by running the Firmware Manager II
tool (FMII), available at www.anybus.com/support, or by downloading the firmware upgrade file directly to the
host application file system. For any of these methods to work the following needs to be implemented and/or
performed:
• HICP needs to be enabled (FMII only).
• An FTP server needs to be implemented in the host application.
• A directory named "firmware" in the host application FTP root.
• The file module.nfo in the "firmware" directory in theAnybus CompactCom file system has to be copied to the
"firmware" directory in the host application file system (FMII only). The Anybus CompactCom file system is
accessed via the Anybus File System Object (0Ah).
Once a firmware file has been downloaded, the host application must be able to:
• detect a new file in the "firmware" directory
• download this file to the "firmware" directory in the Anybus CompactCom (The Anybus CompactCom file
system is accessed via the Anybus File System Object (0Ah).)
The firmware will be updated upon the next reset of the Anybus CompactCom 40 PROFINET IRT.
