Procedure
The firmware update consists of several files, which are combined in a zip file.
1.
Download the firmware update.
2. Unpack the ZIP file into a temporary directory.
3. Open the "Accessible nodes" window with the "Target system > Display accessible nodes"
menu command.
Note
For an online connection via the "Accessible nodes" window, PG/PC and "Accessible nodes"
must be connected to the same physical Ethernet subnet.
4. Select the "Target system > Update firmware" menu command.
5. Select the SITOP UPS1600 whose firmware is to be updated.
6. In the open "Update firmware" dialog, press the "Browse" button to select the path to the
directory with the unzipped files.
In this directory, select the corresponding "*.upd" file.
7. After you have selected a file, the information in the bottom fields of the "Update firmware"
dialog box indicate the components for which the file is suitable and from which firmware
version.
8. Click the "Run" button.
9. STEP 7 checks whether the selected file can be interpreted by the module; if the check is
positive, then the file is loaded to the module.
10.If this requires changing the operating state of the IO controller, then you will be prompted
to do this in the relevant dialog boxes.
11.When option "Activate firmware after loading" is activated, the UPS1600 then automatically
updates the firmware.
Note
A separate connection is established to the CPU for the firmware update, if available. In
this case, the task can be interrupted. If no resources are available for another connection,
an existing connection will be used automatically. In this case, the task cannot be
interrupted; the "Cancel" button in the transfer dialog is grayed-out and cannot be
operated.
