AC30 series Variable Speed Inverter
Firmware Update
The inverter firmware will need to be updated in order to take advantage of new product features, bug fixes or new hardware support. To do this:
Prepare the SD card
Download the latest AC30 firmware from the Parker website:
http://www.parker.com/eme/ac30
Alternatively, the latest firmware can be copied through the Parker Drive Quicktool (PDQ), using the ‘Drive Maintenance’ task.
Copy the firmware onto an SD card. The file must be named firmware.30x for the AC30V, or firmware.30p for the AC30P and AC30D.
Install the SD card
Insert the SD card into the slot in the upper moulding of the control module.
Perform the Firmware upgrade
With the SD card installed in the AC30 control module, navigate to the ‘Setup Wizard’ as detailed on page 9-6. There will now be an additional
‘Update Firmware’ step as the user goes through the Setup Wizard process.
To start the update, change the value from FALSE to TRUE. The ‘Firmware Update In Progress’ message will appear, followed by an egg timer.
CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE POWER FROM THE INVERTER DURING THE FIRMWARE UPDATE.
The inverter will restart once the process is complete and return to the normal menu screen.
