HMI Interface Board Software Updater and Firmware Download Procedure

3.

Press Enter on the keyboard.

A bar graph shows the progress of the file transfer to the HMI Interface Board. A status window under the Update
button shows information about the update progress.

Once the entire Package has been downloaded, the HMI Interface Board will perform a validation process on the
contents.

Status strings provide information about each step in the process:

Validating each file

Extracting each file

Completion status

If any of the contents fails validation, or the drive is not in download mode to accept an included .FFW file, the
entire process will be aborted.

IMPORTANT

To receive status information from the HMI Interface Board module, UDP port 514 must be permitted by the updating computer’s
firewall.

TIP

Press Package to preview the contents of the selected radio button

The Package View dialog shows the generic contents of the SD Card which will be created or updated on the HMI Interface Board.

The PowerFlex 7000 ForGe Drive Firmware and HMI Interface Firmware may also be included in the Package. In this example, the
HMI Interface Board Firmware will be updated, but no update is contained for the Drive Firmware.
