Do not use contact sprays, which could possibly impair the functioning of the contact area. The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 and its components are an open system. It must only be assembled in housings, cabinets or in electrical operation rooms. Access must only be given via a key or tool to authorized qualified personnel.
Each individual components will be presented and briefly described in the relevant sections. Furthermore, the creation of a small operational system and its transfer to the WAGO-I/O-IPC will be shown. Using this system, the target system will then be able to boot on its own.
2.1 Boot Capable CF Card A CF card is used as storage media for updating the software on the WAGO I/O-IPC. The BIOS of the IPC is preset in such a way that the external flash (CF card) will precede the internal flash during the boot procedure.
2.3 USB Keyboard Operating the update software on the IPC is done via USB keyboard. The internal USB ports of the WAGO-I/O-IPC support USB 1.1. The keyboard is automatically recognized and ready to use when connected to the WAGO-I/O- IPC. Using a lower priced keyboard is adequate for this purpose.

The automatic installation of the Kbus firmware is initiated directly after confirmation and requires about 3 minutes.
The first step in updating the system via the network is to copy the update files into the file system of the WAGO-I/O-IPC. The simplest way to do this is via an FTP connection from the host computer, e.g. using “Total Commander 6.0”.
The access authorization for the FTP connection is done via User name: user Password: user00 After logging into the file system of the WAGO-I/O-IPC, you are in the /data folder. The CoDeSys application is automatically stored in this folder to which the user has read and write access.
DVI monitor. After the update has successfully completed, the update files are automatically deleted from the file system and the WAGO-I/O-IPC can be rebooted with the updated software. Both network settings and application program remain unchanged so that the application can start running immediately after the last restart.
WAGO I/O-IPC, as a simple update of the components doesn't work. In case of doubt, this remains the safest way to update the WAGO I/O-IPC as all software components will be updated. To do so, follow the required step by step instructions below.
