MLX200 Software and
Operations
Select the folder that contains the backed up files to be restored and click
the [Select] button. The Maintenance Tool will first perform verification of
the integrity of the backed up files and then prepare the Control Module for
the restore operation. Once this preparation is complete, the actual
restore task will be performed after a reboot of the Control Module. Follow
the procedure outlined in Section 7.2.4 “Rebooting the MLX200 Control
Module” in order to reboot and complete the restore operation.
After the MLX200 Control Module is rebooted to perform the restore
operation, the {Status Display} screen will show the results of the restore
operation as shown in Fig.7-21 "Restore Complete Status Display".

7.2.8 Performing Firmware Update
The manufacturer may occasionally issue a software update package to
the MLX200 Control Module Firmware which includes the MLX200 PLC
Interface Application and its components and dependencies. The
procedure to update the firmware on the MLX200 Control Module using
such a firmware update package is described below.
The first step is to copy the entire folder supplied with the firmware update
package to a USB Disk. Then insert this USB Disk into an available USB
port on the MLX200 Control Module. From the {Maintenance Operations}
screen on the Control module, click on the “Upload/Restore” category on
the left and select the “Update MLX200 Control Module Firmware”
operation as shown in Fig.7-22 "Selecting the Firmware Update
Operation".
The files and the folders created by the backup procedure
described earlier in this section should not be modified in
any manner. If any file or folder is modified, the integrity
check performed during a restore operation will fail and the
restore will not be performed.
