Firmware Upgrades
Download Firmware Files
Before upgrading your terminal firmware, you need to download the appropriate
firmware installation package, for example, PVP700-1500_60000.exe, from the
Rockwell Automation customer website. This installation package contains:
•
Firmware Upgrade Package (FUP) contains an autorun executable and the
new firmware files.
•
Firmware Upgrade Wizard (FUW), version 6.0 , is used to upgrade the
terminal firmware using the contents of the FUP.
Both the FUP and FUW are copied to a specified location on your computer
during the download.
Follow these steps to download firmware installation files to your computer.
1.
Go to
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/support
and select Firmware
Updates under Downloads.
2.
Select the ‘FactoryTalk View ME* (formerly RSView ME)’ link.
3.
Locate the new FUP.
4.
Download the upgrade file (.exe) to a temporary folder on the same drive
as the FactoryTalk View Machine Edition (ME).
5.
Run the upgrade file (.exe) installation procedure.
•
The FUW is installed in the FactoryTalk View ME folder.
•
The firmware upgrade package (.fup) file is installed into the folder
specified during the installation procedure.
You are now ready to run the FUW to upgrade terminal firmware from a USB
flash drive or SD card or by using a network connection.
Firmware Upgrade Wizard
The Firmware Upgrade Wizard (FUW) is used to upgrade the terminal
firmware. Two methods are provided for upgrading the firmware:
•
Create a firmware upgrade card with the contents of the FUP file that you
can then load in the terminal to upgrade the firmware.
The firmware upgrade card can be a USB flash drive or an SD card, catalog
number 1784-SD
x
.
•
Upgrade firmware in a terminal connected to a computer over a direct
network connection. The network connection requires a computer
running RSLinx Enterprise software, version 5.0 or later. In the RSLinx
Enterprise software, you select the terminal you want to upgrade.
You can run the FUW from within FactoryTalk View Studio software or from
the Programs menu on your computer:
•
Choose Tools>Firmware Upgrade Wizard in FactoryTalk View Studio.
•
Choose Start>Programs>Rockwell Software>FactoryTalk
View>Tools>ME Firmware Upgrade Wizard.
TIP
The FUP name is ME_PVP6xX_06.00.000.fup, where 06.00.000 refers to
the ME version and will change with each release. The 6000 in the
installation package name, PVP700-1500_60000.exe, represents the ME
version.
