2. The content of this file must look like this:
WriteStart = 0x08080000
WriteLength = 0x00080000
WriteFile = Name.bin
3. The file must then be copied to the SD card with the BIN file via FTP
(
see also chapter 12.1.1 Procedure via FTP upload on page 43
4. After the files are on the microSD card, the device must be restarted. When
rebooting, the application with the "
Name.bin
" is copied to the internal flash
memory.
After the application is on the device, both files must be deleted again via FTP
(
see also chapter 12.1.1 Procedure via FTP upload on page 43
).
12.3.3
Firmware update with application
Because of a firmware update the memory locations of the application will
change. Therefore, the firmware update must be carried out on a PLC
beforehand, and then the project must be reloaded with Multiprog.
(See also
chapter 10.3 Start Application on the Device on page 37
and
Firmware (ProConOS) on page 43)
1. Afterwards the application with the bootloader must be copied from the memo-
ry to the SD card with this PLC.
This can be done with the file
BTLDRCFG.ini
.
ReadStart = 0x08080000
ReadLength = 0x00080000
ReadFile = Name.bin
(See also chapter 12.3.1 Read application on page 49)
2. The bootloader configuration file must then be uploaded to the SD card via
FTP (
see also chapter 12.1.1 Procedure via FTP upload on page 43
).
3. After the file is on the microSD card, the device must be restarted. When re-
booting, the application with the
Name.bin
will be copied to the SD card.
„
Name.bin
“ must match the name of the file to be written to the microPLC.
Make sure that there are no other bootloader configuration files
on the SD card.
Only then the new firmware fits together with the application and can be
updated together.
The
ReadStart
and the
ReadLength
must not be changed, because the content
of the application is stored there. The identifier
ReadFile
specifies the name on
the SD card.
The name may be max. 8 ASCII characters long. Numbers,
letters and selected special characters are possible.

chapter 12.3.2 Write application on page 50
There should be no firmware file on the SD card.
