Upgrades
The firmware revision in the processor modules can be checked using RSLinx®
RSWho. If the firmware needs to be upgraded, this can be done using
ControlFLASH.
Required software:
• ControlFLASH version 13 or later
• RSLinx Classic Lite version 3.90.00 or later
Required ControlFLASH files for the T9110 Processor Module:
• T9110 Normal Mode ControlFLASH.
• T9110 Recovery Mode ControlFLASH.
The processor module contains two sets of firmware. The normal firmware is
the operational firmware and allows the application to execute and
communicates with the I/O modules. The recovery firmware is used to update
the firmware in the processor module and help diagnose problems. The
normal and recovery firmware are updated with separate ControlFLASH files.
Before starting check that:
• ControlFLASH and RSLinx® Gateway has been installed and configured
• The PC is connected via Ethernet to the processor module
• The correct ControlFLASH file for the processor module has been
installed
• The processor modules are in recovery mode - restart the modules and
press the Fault Reset button, hold until the Aux LED changes to amber
