This document describes how to update firmware on your Ethernet,

Enhanced, or ControlNet PLC-5 programmable controller.

Firmware Update Kit

Contents

Depending on your requirements, the firmware update kit may contain:

•ControlFLASH software with the firmware update

•these installation instructions

•applicable firmware release notes

•a firmware revision label

•firmware EPROMS, if applicable

Hardware and Software

Requirements

Your computer must meet the following requirements to perform the

firmware update:

•at least a 486 processor

•Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT, or later, operating system

•at least 16 Mbytes of available memory

To perform Ethernet Series C, or later, firmware updates, you will need a

Network Interface Card and a switch, Ethernet hub or crossover cable.

To perform other updates, you need a shielded serial cable, either 1784-CP10

or 1784-CP11.

ATTENTION

You must save the controller’s processor memory to your

hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the

controller’s user memory will be lost because the

firmware update procedure erases memory.

Important User Information

Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of

electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and

Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication SGI-1.1 available from your local

Rockwell Automation sales office or online at http://www.ab.com/manuals/gi)

describes some important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired

electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also because of the wide

variety of uses for solid state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this

equipment must satisfy themselves that each intended application of this equipment is

acceptable.

In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or

consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.

The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes.

Because of the many variables and requirements associated with any particular

installation, Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot assume responsibility or liability for

actual use based on the examples and diagrams.

ATTENTION Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can

cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these

guidelines when you handle this equipment:

•Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.

•Wear an approved grounding wrist strap.

•Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.

•Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.

•If available, use a static-safe workstation.

•When not in use, store the equipment in appropriate

static-safe packaging.

ATTENTION This version of ControlFLASH is only suitable for this firmware

update. Do not use this version of ControlFLASH to update

firmware on any other PLC-5 programmable controller.

Important Considerations for CL I, Div. 2 Installations

Ethernet PLC-5

Programmable Controllers

- 1785-L20E

- 1785-L40E

- 1785-L80E

Series C and D

To update these series of Ethernet PLC-5 firmware, you must first use

ControlFLASH through the Ethernet channel, and then replace the applicable

EPROMS. To start this firmware update, follow these steps:

Step 1 - Prepare the PLC-5 Programmable Controller

1. Save the controller’s processor memory to your hard disk or to an

EEPROM.

2. Remove power from the controller.

3. Remove the controller battery cover and disconnect the battery.

4. Remove the controller from the chassis.

WARNING When you connect or disconnect the battery, an electrical arc can

occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location

installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is

nonhazardous before proceeding.

• For safety information on the handling of lithium batteries,

including handling and disposal of leaking batteries, refer to

Guidelines for Handling Lithium Batteries, publication AG-5.4

• Store batteries in a cool, dry environment. We recommend 25°

C with 40% or 60% relative humidity. You may store batteries

up to 30 days between -45° - 85° C, such as during

transportation. To avoid possible leakage, do not store batteries

above 60° C for more than 30 days.

WARNING When you install or remove the module with power applied, or

you connect or disconnect the serial cable with power applied to

this programmable controller or the device on the other end of

the cable, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an

explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is

removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

ATTENTION

You must save the controller’s processor memory to your

hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the

controller’s user memory will be lost because the

firmware update procedure erases memory.

5. Locate and document the controller’s hardware Ethernet address.

The address is on the circuit board label toward the back of the

controller.

6. If applicable, disconnect the coprocessor or Ethernet Interface sidecar

module.

7. Reinstall the controller into the chassis.

8. Apply power to the controller.

9. Through the Ethernet port, use either a switch, hub or crossover cable

to connect the computer to the controller. Make sure the TCP/IP is

configured and running on the personal computer.

10. Assign the controller’s IP address by going online with the controller via

DH+ or serially. Use the channel configuration screen to configure the

IP address for Channel 2 (uncheck the BOOTP enabled box).

11. Turn the controller keyswitch to PROGRAM mode.

Step 2 - Install the ControlFLASH Software

1. Insert the ControlFLASH disk into the floppy drive of your computer.

2. Browse the A: drive and select the setup.exe program.

3. If you have an earlier version of ControlFLASH installed, we

recommend to install this version into the same directory.

4. Follow the Setup Wizard as it guides you through the installation

process.

Step 3 - Perform the ControlFLASH Update

1. If you have not already done so, connect the computer to the controller

through the Ethernet channel:

–use either a switch, hub or crossover cable to connect the computer

to the controller

2. Close all applications including RSLinx.

ATTENTION

Failure to follow these procedures exactly or to

cause an interruption during them may result in

an inoperable controller.

4. Remove power from the controller.

5. Remove the controller from the chassis.

3F - Start the firmware update.

Click Yes.

The progress indicator shows how much of the

update has been performed.

Important: This update can take up to two minutes

to complete.

3H - Follow the power cycle instructions during and after the update process.

When the update is complete, the software will prompt

you to cycle power.

Important: Do not click OK until you complete the next

three steps:

- “Install the New Firmware EPROMS”

- “Apply the Firmware Revision Label”

- “Complete the Firmware Update”

These procedures are detailed on the following pages.

3G - Check the STAT LED on the PLC-5. If it is flashing green, the ControlFLASH update was

successful - continue to step 3H. If the STAT LED is not flashing green, the update was not

successful - call Rockwell Automation Technical Support at 440-646-3223.
