11.5.2.1.2 Loading Firmware Offline
For the accomplishment a SD card reader/writer must be connected on the engineering PC,
and a suitable SD card must be inserted.
• Copy now the required firmware files from the PC into the root directory of the SD card
• Insert the SD card afterwards in the de-energized target device
• Then switch the power supply on
The target device performs a startup (duration up to 15 minutes depending on number and
size of the loaded files) and loads thereby the firmwares of the corresponding modules (if al-
ready configured).
11.5.3 Errors with Loading of Firmware
For a perfect functioning of the Master Module, it is absolutely necessary that the loading pro-
cess completes without errors.
If the loading process is terminated with an error, cancel it. Afterwards, start the loading pro-
cess again and attempt to complete without error. If an error occurs again, check the record in
the diagnosis and the lighted display on the Master Module.
The following reasons lead to a malfunction of the Master Module:
• Voltage failure
• Premature abortion by the user
• Failure (defect, shutdown) of the engineering PC
• Abortion due to hardware error
• Abortion or excessively long fault of the communication connection between engineering
PC and target device
You find further technical information in the manual SICAM RTUs Common Functions System
and Basic System Elements, chapter "System Services", sections "Loading Operation" and
"Firmware Shut Down".
Note
A system that is defective can be recognized by the fact, that after a restart of the target device the yellow
RY-LED and the red ER-LED do not light up. An access with the SICAM TOOLBOX II is no longer possi-
ble in this case.
In this case please consult our Customer Support Center.
