Module information: Firmware tab
The firmware tab of the module information page displays information about the firmware of
the selected module. If you have the "perform firmware update" privilege (Page 604), you
can also perform a firmware update of the CPU or other modules that support firmware
update.
Note
You can only update S7
-1200 CPUs of version 3.0 and higher with the Update Firmware
feature.
The Web server uses the "https" proto
col to perform the firmware update.
The CPU must be in STOP mode to perform a firmware update. When the CPU is in STOP
mode, click the Browse button to navigate to and select a firmware file. Firmware updates
are available on the customer support Web site (http://support.automation.siemens.com).
During the update, the page displays a message showing that the update is in progress.
After the update completes, the page displays the order number and version number of the
updated firmware. If you updated the firmware for the CPU or a signal board, the Web server
restarts the CPU.
Note
You can also perform a firmware update from
STEP 7 (Page 791), or by using a memory
card
(Page 133).
