- Under Protocol, click the arrow on the right to open the
dropdown list. Select Xmodem from the list and then
click on Send button. This will start the download
process, and a window similar to the one shown below
will appear showing download progress.
-
After the download is complete, the “Download
Successful” message will appear inside the
HyperTerminal window. At this point the system is still
in download mode. Now, close the HyperTerminal
program and disconnect your laptop from the drive and
cycle the control power to drive control boards.
-
After the boards are powered up, you need to transfer the
parameters from the Terminal memory back to drive.
Refer to “Reloading the Parameters” described below.
NOTE: While the system is powered down, the system should be
inspected for a DIM module. This is an external memory module mounted
on the CIB, in P50-40. If this module is installed and at an earlier major
database revision than the new firmware installed, it should be removed.
The drive will give you an INVALID DIM fault when you re-power the
drive with the module still installed.
Reloading the Parameters
Once power is reapplied, the drive may come up will all the parameters
from NVRAM. But if you have upgraded the firmware from one main
revision level to another (i.e. 2.002 to 3.001), the NVRAM will be
cleared. All other information such as operating hours, external fault
messages, specific drive name, trending setup, etc. are also cleared. If you
have upgraded the firmware from one minor revision level to another (i.e.
3.002 to 3.004), the NVRAM will still be intact.
For major revision level upgrades, the majority of the parameters that
were stored in the Operator Interface or other external means can still be
used, but there may be things such as new parameters, changed scaling on
an existing parameter, or added functionality to existing parameters that
