How to perform the upgrade of the System Expansion Card
Requirement
● You can access the automation system for which you want to perform the PO upgrade with

Perform upgrade with PO-Release-File
Note
During the upgrade of the process objects of a CPU 410-5H system expansion card (SEC),
only one instance of the Automation License Manager (ALM) may be active.
1. Transfer the PO-Release-Files you received to the following upgrade directory on the
engineering station:
Documents > Siemens > Automation > PCS 7 > Activations
2. Open the Automation License Manager.
3. Select the menu command Edit > Connect target system > Connect/disconnect AS 410... .
The "Connect target system" dialog box displays the list of automation systems that are
linked with the Automation License Manager.
4. Click "OK".
The connected automation systems are displayed in the list.
5. In the tree view, open the automation system for which you have received the PO-Release-
File.
6. Use drag-and-drop to transfer the PO-Release-File to the "Online" folder of the automation
system.
The upgrade is completed. The time needed for this depends on the load of the automation
system.
7. After a successful upgrade, the utilized files in the upgrade directory (PO-Release-File and
PO-Activation-File) are deleted.
The Automation License Manager displays the new PO volume for the updated System
Expansion Card.
