46 Installing KEPServer Drivers on Terminal

Upgrade Firmware using a
Network (Ethernet)
Connection

You can upgrade the firmware in a terminal that is connected to a
desktop computer using a Serial, Ethernet or Network (using RSLinx
Enterprise) connection.

Network connection requires RSLinx Enterprise where you

select the terminal on an existing network.

Serial connection requires a RAS connection to be set up on

computer. During the RAS setup, you select the COM port.

Ethernet connection requires that you enter the terminal’s IP

Address.

Both the Serial and Ethernet connection requires the PanelView Plus
File Transfer Utility running on the terminal and should only be used
when other methods fail.

This section shows how to upgrade firmware in a PanelView Plus
terminal using a Network connection via Ethernet communications.

1. Start the Firmware Upgrade Wizard. Select Start>Rockwell

Software>RSView Enterprise>Firmware Upgrade Wizard.
