2 Loading the operating system and EPROM’S
2.1 Bootstrapping the Boot-EPROM’s
The Boot-EPROM version on the AC 800F must match the software version of the engineering
software. The Boot-EPROM can be updated during installation using DigiTool, although an up-
date can also be carried out later using DigiTool Configure.
This requires the TCP/IP protocol to be loaded and the presence of an Ethernet link to the
AC 800F.
Task Bar → Start → Programs → Freelance 2000 Tools → DigiTool Configure
L
OAD The current version of Boot-EPROM’s and the operating system is loaded
on the AC 800F using the relevant set IP address(es).
END Ends update of EPROM’s and finishes installation of DigiTool version.
If you have several FieldControllers, you must perform this procedure for each FieldController.
If you are using the FieldController redundantly (only AC 800F), enter both addresses (IP address
1 and IP address 2). The Boot-EPROM and the operating system are then loaded in both Field
Controllers.
