4.2.4 System Program
The system program can be replaced, that is, updated to a newer version, in one of
two ways: Via PC or Via External Memory Card.
Via PC
The configuration tool Information Designer is used to download system programs
via a PC to the operator terminal. The transfer can be made via the serial port or over
Ethernet. The serial cable should be a CAB30 cable and the Ethernet cable should be
a crossed CAT5 cable.
Transferring the system program to the operator terminal via a PC requires
the following:
– PC with the configuration tool installed.
– Transfer cable between the PC and the operator terminal.
– File with new system program (OPSys_b*.cab).
The transfer is made using the following steps:
By Serial Port
1. Connect the cable between the PC and operator terminal.
2. Open a project or create a new project with the desired operator terminal type.
3. Select Transfer/Update Operator Terminal System Program.
No settings are required in the operator terminal.
Over Ethernet
1. Connect the cable between the PC and operator terminal.
2. Set the operator terminal to User Menu mode (see the Mode Switches section).
3. Enter a valid IP address for the operator terminal.

5. Open a project or create a new project with the desired operator terminal type.
