24 V supply from the Control Unit.

Decide whether to remove the memory card from the inverter:
•
You leave the memory card in place:
–
There was no data back up on the memory card: ⇒ In step
13, the inverter writes
its settings to the memory card.
–
The memory card contains a data backup: ⇒ In step
13, the inverter takes the
settings from the memory card.
•
Remove the memory card: The inverter keeps its settings.
11. Mount the Control Unit on the Power Module
12. Reconnect all plugs and switch on the 24 V sup-
ply.
13. If the firmware upgrade was successful, the Con-
trol Unit responds after a few seconds with the
RDY LED lighting up green.
If the memory card is still inserted, depending on the previous content of the memory
card, one of the two following cases has occurred:
•
The memory card contained a data backup: ⇒ The inverter has taken over the
settings from the memory card.
•
There was no data backup on the memory card: ⇒ The inverter has written its settings
to the memory card.
You have upgraded the inverter firmware to a newer version.

Firmware downgrade
When downgrading firmware you replace the inverter's firmware with an older version. Only
update the firmware to an older level if, after replacing an inverter, you require the same
firmware in all inverters.
Requirement
●
Your inverter's firmware is at least version V4.6.
●
You have saved your settings onto a memory card, in an operator panel or on a PC.
