Inverter with CU230P-2 Control Units
348 Operating Instructions, 11/2013, FW V4.6.6, A5E02430659B AG
10.5
Upgrading the firmware
When upgrading the firmware, you replace the inverter firmware by a later version. Only
update the firmware to a later version if you require the expanded functional scope of the
newer version.
Precondition
The firmware version of your inverter is at least V4.5.
You have the memory card with the firmware that matches the inverter.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to upgrade the inverter firmware to a later version:
1. Switch off the inverter power supply.
2. Wait until all LEDs on the inverter are dark.
3. Insert the card with the matching firmware into the inverter slot until it latches into place.
4. Switch on the inverter power supply.
5. The inverter transfers the firmware from the memory card into its memory.
The transfer takes approximately 510 minutes.
While data is being transferred, the LED RDY on the inverter stays red. The LED BF
flashes orange with a variable frequency.
6. At the end of the transfer, the LED RDY and BF slowly flash red (0.5 Hz).
Note
Corrupted firmware if the power supply fails during the transfer
The inverter firmware can be corrupted if the power supply fails during the transfer.
Do not switch off the inverter power supply as long as data is being transferred.
