Figure 17. PLM communication parameters window
By default, the PLM is configured to work properly. Pressing the DEFAULT button, the
parameter boxes are populated with the default values. Modify with care each parameter,
and press the SET button to send the parameters to the addressed node (the selected node
is shown in the top of the parameter window).
The UPDATE FW button implements the remote firmware update feature (RFU).
The RFU allows the user to update the firmware of a module connected remotely in the
same power line, both in broadcast mode and in unicast mode by selecting a node in the
AVAILABLE NODE LIST.
This feature works only with remote nodes, because if the firmware of the module
connected to the GUI needs to be updated, it is necessary to use the programmer.
After pressing the UPDATE FW button a open window appears.
Locate the new firmware release in the Firmware - Application standalone folder and then
select the .bin file.
A warning message will appear asking to confirm the firmware update operation. As soon as
the YES button is pressed, the download starts. The user can follow the status of the update
in the log window and in the progress bar that appears immediately after.
