IMPORTANT UPGRADE INFORMATION FOR ALL SYSTEMS
A. For systems starting at/below 5.00 Flash - the panels must be upgraded in a three-step process:
•
If panels are running v5.00 /4.77 Flash (or lower), you cannot go straight up to 10.4.1
(or current
flash) – the flash process will not complete, although it will not damage the board. Drop back and run the
“stepstone” file and then run the “release” file.
•
Remember: CPU flash version must be married to the SG Software Version. Reference
Flash Version Table
inside Chapter 1 or 2 to confirm flash versions as needed.
1.
First the CPU must be upgraded to the current “stepstone” file version.
2.
Then the CPU must be upgraded to the final “release” file version.
3.
Finally, all daughter boards must be updated to the “release” version.
B. For systems at 5.04 Flash (or higher) - all 635-DSI’s must be disconnected before flashing CPU:
•
This does not affect 600 DSI boards.
•
This does not affect later versions.
•
To discover if you have any 635-DSI Boards,
send a [Get Board Info] from the Controller Programming
screen in the System Galaxy software (or look up Panel Summary via the CPU’s
embedded web page
).
1.
First disconnect the 635 DSI’s from the ribbon cable.
2.
Then upgrade the flash to the CPU and other daughter boards as normal.
3.
Finally upgrade each 635-DSI Board individually.
To do this, connect one DSI board to the ribbon cable and upgrade it before connecting and upgrading the
next one. To trigger a flash update, click
[Allow Board Flash Update]
button
in GCS Loader or webpage
.
*CPU’s and daughter boards can be flashed using the GCS Loader Utility from the System Galaxy software:
Launch the GCS Loader Utility
from the software by right-clicking on a
loop/cluster name
in the Hardware Tree. Use the *_stepstone.s28 and the *_release.s28.
CPU’s and daughter boards can be flashed using the embedded webpage (browser):
Launch the panel’s embedded webpage by using the
635 Config Tool or by entering the panel’s IP Address into the browser url. Use the *_stepstone.bin and the *_release.bin. Browser/PC
must be on the same network segment as panel.
Contact Technical Support for assistance if you have any questions.
