Update Considerations
Chapter 1
Prepare the Controller
Project for the Update
To prepare the controller project and controllers for the update, complete these
steps.
1. Start the Logix Designer application, and select your redundancy
project.
2. Go online with the primary controller.
3. To make sure that your off-line project has the latest updates, or in case
you do not have an off-line file, upload the project from the primary
controller.
4. Verify that the watchdog time is set to a value that corresponds with the
requirements of the redundancy system revision and your application.
5. Cancel or assemble any pending test edits.
6. Remove all sequential function chart (SFC) forces from the project.
7. Verify that no changes are required for the following:
– I/O forces
– I/O configuration
After this step, changes to I/O cannot be made until after the
redundancy system revision update is complete and both chassis are
synchronized.
8. Save the project.
9. Go offline.
10. Click Controller Properties.
11. Click Change Controller.
12. Specify the controller revision that you are upgrading to.
13. If you install a new controller while upgrading the secondary chassis
firmware, specify the new controller catalog number.
