An upgrade of the complete software package is sometimes needed to take
advantage of new functionality. The complete software package consists of the
EBOOT, the Windows CE operating system and the system program. The
upgrade is done by running the Image Loader executable file, Bxxx_iml.exe. The
Image Loader application will help and guide you through the upgrade.
Using the Image Loader requires that the mode switches are set in mode 0100.
When the upgrade is finished, the operator panel will receive the default IP address
192.168.1.1. Follow the instructions on the screen after startup to change the IP
address.
Note:
ALL existing data, including the file system and the project application files, in the
operator panel will be deleted (overwritten) by the Image Loader application.
Note:
The Image Loader software is only intended for customers and partners that have an
operator panel. No other distribution is allowed.
