10 How to Load New Firmware

Requirements

You download new firmware to a SIMATIC NET CP using the firmware loader shipped with STEP 7 / NCM S7.

Requirements for Downloading

STo download firmware, you require an Industrial Ethernet CP module in the PG/PC (for example, CP 1613) or a normal Ethernet module with the “Softnet” software package.

SThe S7-ONLINE interface must be set to the “ISO − Industrial Ethernet” protocol. It is not possible to download using TCP/IP (and therefore not to other networks).

How to Download New Firmware

You always start the download using the active MAC address of the CP!

LEDs to Indicate the CP Mode

The different combinations of the LEDs on the front panel indicate the status:

What to do if a Download is Interrupted

Disturbances or collisions on the network can lead to packets being lost. In such cases, this can lead to an interruption of the firmware download. The firmware loader then signals a timeout or negative response from the module being loaded.

In this case, turn the station off and on again and repeat the download.
