Maintenance 9410 series
You can only upload firmware to the same type of module; if you have different types of
option modules connected to your meter, you must perform the upload process for
each module type.
You must have:
• Your meter’s option module firmware upgrade (.SI9) file. You can download
upgrade files from www.usa.siemens.com/pds.
• The option module connected to your meter, and have access to your meter’s
internal FTP site.
• FTP access to your meter from the computer running ION Setup.
All option modules do not perform their regular functions during firmware upgrade; they
will not communicate to the meter and the outputs may change state during the
upgrade process.
