5.7.2 Firmware Update (Single and Multi-device for Servo Drive and SAB)5.7.2.1 Single Device Firmware UpdateThis sub-tool is used to update the firmware of a deviceover a network, for example direct Ethernet POWERLINK®or EtherCAT® connection or indirect connection via a PLC.The firmware can be updated by sending a firmwarepackage to the device.Illustration 5.26 shows the Firmware Update sub-tool. Afterclicking the Open button, the firmware package file witha .bin extension can be flashed. The name of theselected .bin file is then shown next to the button. Alterna-tively, drag and drop a firmware package file fromWindows Explorer to the Firmware Update sub-tool to openit.Illustration 5.26 Firmware Update Sub-toolIt may take some time until the message Firmware updateis complete is shown. Do not power off during this time.Field DescriptionCurrentdeviceShows the device to be updated.TargetdeviceShows the device type defined in the firmwarepackage file.Version Shows the target version of the loaded firmwarepackage file.Size Contains the size of the firmware package file inbytes.Field DescriptionUpdateStatusShows the current state of the Firmware Update sub-tool. It contains a text field and a progress bar. Thetext field can show 1 of these states:No image loaded No firmware package file wasloaded from the file system.Ready A firmware package file wassuccessfully loaded andmatches the target devicetype.Initializing The firmware update isstarting. This state is typicallyshort.Updating - X% The firmware updateprocedure is being executedand is X% complete.Firmware update iscompleteAll packets have been sent tothe device successfully.Firmware updatefailedAn error occurred whentransferring the firmwarepackage. The Output windowcontains further information.UpdatefirmwareStarts the firmware update procedure.Table 5.5 Firmware Update Sub-ToolNOTICEThe device type specified in fields Current device andTarget device must match, otherwise an error message isshown, and the Update firmware button remainsdisabled.The Firmware Update sub-tool only allows updating newfirmware when the device is not in operation. Thefirmware cannot be updated if 1 or more of the followingconditions are true:• The fieldbus is Ethernet POWERLINK® and cycliccommunication is performed.• The device is an ISD servo drive and it is in stateOperation Enabled.• The device is an SAB and it is in state OperationEnabled.5.7.2.2 Multi-Device Firmware UpdateThe Multi-Device Firmware Update sub-tool shown inIllustration 5.27 contains functionality for updating thefirmware of multiple devices with the same firmwarepackage.Close all other tools before opening the Multi-DeviceFirmware Update sub-tool because no other functionalitiescan be used during the firmware update process.Open the Multi-device Firmware Update sub-tool via menu[Multiple Device Functionalities → Firmware Update] for aOperation with ISD Toolbox VLT® Integrated Servo Drive ISD® 510 System124 Danfoss A/S © 01/2017 All rights reserved.
