The upg
rade data is generated using the SCOUT function "Start device update tool"
and then transferred to the SIMOTION D410 via Compact Flash Card or IT DIAG file.
Upgrading modules using upgrade data offers the option of downgrading if the
upgrade does not produce the desired result.
Note
Upgrading using the device update tool offers a number of advantages (keeping retain
data, option of downgrading, no license key handling, etc.). We would therefore
recommend using this method for firmware and project updates.
Please also observe the information on handling the CompactFlash Card.
