FIRMWARE UPGRADE
Press the Upgrade Firmware command in the left navigation bar of the Web server
Home page to enter the Firmware Upgrade page. Please note that this is a password
protected page, thus a password is requested to access the page.
This operation allows to upgrade the unit firmware by downloading upgrading data to
the flash memory.
Firmware is a software program which controls the functions and operation of a device;
the firmware program, sometimes referred to as “user program”, is stored in the flash
memory integrated inside the unit. These encoders are designed so that the firmware
can be easily updated by the user himself. This allows Datalogic to make new improved
firmware programs available during the lifetime of the product.
Typical reasons for the release of new firmware programs are the necessity to make cor
-
rections, improve and even add new functionalities to the device.
The firmware upgrading program consists of a single file having .BIN extension. It is
released by Datalogic.
If the latest firmware version is already installed in the unit, you do not need to proceed
with any new firmware installation. The firmware version currently installed can be read
next to the Application-DSC FW Version item in the Encoder Information page after con
-
nection to the web server (see "
Encoder Information (Profinet Parameters)" on page 93
).
Before proceeding with the firmware upgrade please ascertain that the following
requirements are fully satisfied:
• the encoder is connected to the Ethernet network;
• the encoder has valid device name and IP address;
• the PC is connected both to the network and the IO controller;
• a web browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, …) is
installed in the PC or device used for connection;
• you have the SW_ETH_REVX_Y.EXE executable file;
• you have the .BIN file for firmware upgrade.
To upgrade the firmware program please proceed as follows:
1. press the
Upgrade Firmware
command in the left navigation bar of the Web
server Home page to enter the
Firmware Upgrade
page;
CAUTION
Firmware upgrading process has to be accomplished by skilled and compe
-
tent personnel. It is mandatory to perform the upgrade according to the
instructions provided in this section.
Before installation always ascertain that the firmware program is compati
-
ble with the hardware and software of the device. Furthermore, never turn
off power during flash upgrade. In case of flash upgrade error, the program
is lost irreversibly (there is not a bootloader) and the device must be sent
back to Datalogic for restoring.
NOTE
If you are not confident that you can perform the update successfully,
please contact Datalogic Technical Support.
