2.2 Loading the operating system
The operating system can be loaded by bootstrap via the system bus into the station.
Requirement It is necessary that no operating system be present in the FieldController
(RUN/STOP Led off). If necessary a general reset must be performed be-
forehand.
The initial loading of the operating system (bootstrapping) takes place automatically when a
boot EPROM is first loaded via load boot EPROM. It can also, however, be carried out
separately from user program loading after initalize all. It is not necessary to load the op-
erating system into the Secondary, as loading the Boot-EPROM means that the operating
system has already been loaded and it is not deleted in the Secondary when a general re-
set is carried out.
2.3 Loading the EPROM's of Profibus modules
Profibus module EPROM's can be reprogrammed using software. When this is performed, the
complete FieldController is initialized and the outputs of connected I/O modules and field devices
are reset.
The EPROM is loaded using DigiTool configure, and all the FI 830F Profibus modules are always
loaded.
Loading a more recent EPROM version from Profibus modules can only ever be carried
out for the whole FieldController. The whole FieldController is initialized in the process.
DigiTool Configure → Load Profibus Module EPROM! → Enter IP address of FieldControl-
ler → Repeat load operation for each FieldController
