Update Firmware

Typically  when  power  flows  to  the  

EZTouch I/O

 Jr.  unit's  power  terminals,  the

 

indicator LED (located on the back of the unit) displays a blinking green LED.  If the

 

indicator LED is blinking red, then the firmware on the unit needs updated.  

NOTE:  

Back  up  the  user  program  stored  on  the  

EZTouch I/O

 Jr.  unit  prior  to

 

updating the firmware. Existing programs that are saved  to  Flash  memory must

 

be 

resaved to Flash after the upgrade. 

To check firmware version

:

1. Simultaneously press the upper left corner and the bottom left corner of the

screen  to  reach  the  language  selection  screen.    Select  the  appropriate

language.  The unit will then enter the Setup Mode.

2. The upper left corner will then display the firmware currently enabled on the

unit.

To update firmware

:

1. Insert  a  RS-232C  cable  into  the  serial  port  and  launch  the  EZ  Panel  Editor

software.

2. Select Edit Program ON-LINE and enter a project name (e.g. Test). Click OK.

3.

 

Next  select 

EZTouch I/O

 Jr.  from  the  drop-down  list  under  Panel  Family.  Once

EZTouch I/O

 Jr. is selected, the other fields will populate.

4. Choose  the  appropriate  I/O  model  (22  or  28)  and  click  OK  to  launch  the

editing  software  program.    The  Main  Project  Window  will  then  appear

showing  both  the  PLC  and  Panel  sides  to  the  program.    To  update  the

firmware, the Panel side will need to be selected.

5. Click  

Set-up  >  Upgrade  Firmware
