9.1 FIRMWARE UPGRADE VERSIONS BELOW 7.00.
CHAPTER 9: BOOTCODE AND FIRMWARE UPGRADE
9.1.2 Bootware version upgrade
Boot code upgrade is performed using EnerVista 650 Setup, and the most recent version of Enervista 650 setup software
should be used. It is required that no active communication is currently established between the program and the relay,
and that no configuration files are open.
During the boot code upgrading process, all the data stored in the relay is lost. Save all calibration, settings, oscillography,
etc. from the relay before starting the upgrade.
9.1.2.1 Bootware upgrade
1.
Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8 Operating Systems must be used for installation and the reliable operation of
Enervista 650 Setup program and bootware/firmware relay upgrade.
2.
To upgrade the boot code, it is required to connect an RS232 cable to the front of the relay, and an Ethernet cable to
the rear port (ETH_1/ETH_2 or ETH_E/ETH_A/ETH_B).
3.
If it is being used a USB-to-Serial RS232 Cable Converter, it must be a RS-232C standard compliant, powered by the
User computer's USB bus and with DB9 male connector. To ensure the correct state of communication between the
computer and the relay along the whole upgrading process, all other USB devices must be unplugged. Due to the
extended variety of USB-to-Serial Cable Converters existing nowadays in the market, with different characteristics,
even different charge imposed to the USB bus of the PC, it is strongly recommended to use the GE USB-to-Serial RS232
Cable Converter, part number GE0100-0001.
4.
When using USB-to-Serial RS232 cable it is necessary first to determine the COM Port number the Laptop uses
through the USB device. Depending in the actual F650 upgrade task under operation, the procedure is as follows:
4.1 Firmware upgrade: It is not necessary to use a serial cable
4.2 Bootware and firmware upgrade being the relay fully operative with the actual F/W version: The COM port number
must be determined by using the 650 Setup program. With USB device disconnected from the Laptop and from the
relay, start the 650 Setup program. At the top menu bar choose
Communication > Computer > Communication Port
menu and check the allowable serial ports displayed.Return to the main 650 Setup screen and connect the USB
device to PC and select
Communication > Computer > Communication Port
to display the allowed serial ports. The
new one port number shown is the USB port number to be used for the upgrade process.
4.3 Bootware and firmware upgrade being the relay blocked at startup (no preliminary communication PC-Relay
allowable): Repeat the process described above in 4.2 to determine the COM PORT number and continue with upgrade
process.
5.
Once the COM PORT number is determined, set it in
Communication > Computer
together with and the
Baud Rate
and
Parity
parameters. Click

.
6.
Start the Enervista F650 Setup program and select
Communication > Upgrade Relay
