Options for the firmware update
The following options are available for updating firmware:
● Online via PROFINET IO/PROFIBUS DP (with STEP 7)
● Via a SIMATIC memory card (possible for CPU and centralized I/O modules)
● Via the integrated Web server (possible for CPU as well as centralized and distributed I/O
modules)
Note
Firmware files of the CPU
If you perform a CPU update with STEP
7, you require STEP 7 (TIA Portal as of V13 Update
3).
The table below provides an overview of the media that can be used to update the firmware
of a specific module.
