4.11 Upgrading to Firmware Version 3.5.0

4.11.1 Requirements

To do update the firmware on an ILX34, you need:
 The firmware release package, ControlFLASHv305.zip.
 An Ethernet cable and network connection from your ILX34 to your PC.
 A PC running 32-bit Windows XP.

Note: Windows XP virtual machine environments and other Windows versions (e.g. Vista,

Windows 7) will not work.

If your PC currently has any version of ControlFLASH installed, click on the
ControlFLASH.msi file provided with the firmware release and proceed to the
section, Flash programming the ILX34 (page 110).

If your PC does not have ControlFLASH installed, you can download the
software from Rockwell Automation Web site using the following link:

http://ab.rockwellautomation.com/Programmable-Controllers/Connected-
Components-Workbench-Software
(http://ab.rockwellautomation.com/programmable-controllers/connected-
components-workbench-software)

You will need to setup a free account to gain access.

4.11.2 Installing the Connected Components Workshop package

1 Expand the Connected Components Workshop zip file.
2 After expansion, go to the System folder, then the ControlFLASH folder.

Rename ControlFLASH to something else (e.g. XControlFLASH). This will
prevent installation of an obsolete version of ControlFLASH that will interfere
with a newer version we will install later.
