3-6-2 Replacing the System Program
The system program in the PT can be replaced or upgraded to a higher version. There are
two methods that can be used to replace the system program.
• Using a recovery/upgrade program
• Transferring system program data
Using a Recovery/Upgrade Program
For details on the recovery/update program, select Start - Program - OMRON - CX-One -
CX-Designer NS Most Recent NS-series PT Update/Recovery Procedure.
Transferring System Program Data
When System Program Ver. 8.1 is selected and loaded with the CX-Designer, it is stored un-
der the CX-Designer’s install folder (default location is C:\Program Files\Omron\CX-One\CX-
Designer) in folders that are created for each type and version, as follows:
\SystemBackup\NS15\V8_1\bank1: Ver. 8.1 for NS15
\NS12_V1_V2\V8_1\bank1: Ver. 8.1 for NS12
\NS10_V1_V2\V8_1\bank1: Ver. 8.1 for NS10
\NS8_V1_V2\V8_1\bank1: Ver. 8.1 for NS8
\NS5_V1_V2\V8_1\bank1: Ver. 8.1 for NS5
To replace a system program, use Windows Explorer or another method to copy each of the
folders for the required system program under \bank1 to the route directory of the Memory
Card.
For details on methods for transferring data from the Memory Card to the PT, refer to 3-6-3
Transferring Data with Memory Cards.
The system backup folder can be created only if CX-Designer is installed from the stand-
alone CD-ROM. If the CX-Designer is installed from CX-One, reinstall the system program
by following the procedure for using a recovery/update program described above.
Restrictions on System Program Replacement
Starting the PT may become impossible if the system program replacement procedure is not
performed correctly. Observe the following precautions.
• When upgrading the system program (or replacing it with a previous version), use the re-
covery/update program at least the first time.
• System program version 6.2 or higher must be used to replace the system program in the
NS5-SQ0@-V2, NS5-TQ0@-V2, or NS5-MQ0@-V2. If an earlier system program version is
used, screens may not be displayed properly. If an earlier version is installed by mistake,
use the recovery/update program and upgrade to system program version 6.2 or higher.
• System program version 8.0 or higher must be used to replace the system program in the
NS5-SQ1@-V2, NS5-TQ1@-V2, or NS5-MQ1@-V2. Earlier versions cannot be used.
• System program version 8.1 or higher must be used to replace the system program in the
NS15-TX01@-V2. You cannot replace the system program with a system program of a
lower version.
