12. Move the operating system write-protect jumper (J4) back to the
protected position (see diagram on page 3).
13. Apply the enclosed firmware upgrade label to the processor
nameplate.
14. Firmly seat the processor back into the chassis.
15. Attach the communication cable between the processor and
your programming terminal.
16. Apply power to the chassis containing the processor while
watching the LED display. All the LEDs should flash on and then 
turn off except for the FLT LED which should remaining 
flashing. If the FLT LED turns on and a combination of LEDs 
flash on and off indicating an error condition, refer to the 
troubleshooting information in this document.
17. Restore your program.
Identifying Processor 
Errors While Downloading 
Firmware
The download process of the firmware/operating system takes up to 
2.5 minutes. While the download is in progress, the RUN and FLT 
LEDs remain off. The other four LEDs – RS232, DH485 (DH
+ on the
SLC 5/04), FORCE, and BATT – turn on and off in a walking bit 
sequence. If the download is successful, these four LEDs remain on 
together.
If the download is not successful, the FLT LED turns on and a 
combination of LEDs flash on and off indicating an error condition. 
The following LED diagrams and tables provide information regarding 
error messages, possible cause(s) for the error, and recommended 
action(s) to take to resolve the error.
IMPORTANT
Failure to return the J4 jumper to the protected 
position results in an error (0x3D Hex) on the 
power cycle following the download of a valid 
program to the processor. This error condition 
prevents the module from going to run and 
causes Channel 0 communication settings to 
return to their defaults. To properly clear the 
error, place the J4 jumper in the protected 
position, and then re-download a valid user 
program to the processor.
