4.5. Upgrading PLC firmware for ML200R CPU online
4.5 Upgrading PLC firmware for ML200R CPU online

ATTENTION
Only CPU firmware version can be upgraded online and not Expansion
Manager/Driver.
Ensure that the CPU OS version to be installed is compatible with the
existing Expansion driver/Expansion manager OS version.
To upgrade PLC firmware for CPU during operation (online), perform the following
steps.
ATTENTION
The following procedure is given by considering the CPU A as Master and
CPU B as Standby.
Execute the procedure carefully based on your current status of CPU or

ensure CPU A as Master and follow the procedure.
Step Action
1 Remove the synchronization cable (OFC) between Master CPU (A) and
Standby CPU (B) and all I/O cables connected to Standby CPU (B) to isolate
the Standby CPU (B) from operation.
2 Change the mode from REMOTE to RUN using a key switch. Hence, the
isolated Standby CPU (B) becomes a Master CPU (B).
3 Change the isolated CPU to STOP mode, and ensure that the key switch is
set back to REMOTE mode

4.6. Upgrading OS for Communication Module using SoftMaster-NM
Step Action
8
Click .

b) Click ML CPU Series in the OS Type drop-down list.
c) Click ML200R Boot. The following actions occur by default.
d) Click Open and select OS as 2MLR_CPUH_Main_Vxx.bin.
After the download is complete in the isolated CPU (B),

CPU (B) changes to STOP mode.
Power off the CPU (B) and connect the synchronization cable and I/O
cable to CPU (B).
CPU OS upgradation for this CPU (B) is completed.

11 Power on CPU (B) and change its mode to RUN (by Key switch or
SoftMaster). Both CPUs are in RUN mode even if the OS versions are
different.
12 Change Master CPU (A) to STOP mode. Then, this Master CPU (A) becomes
Standby CPU (A) and the Standby CPU (B) becomes Master CPU (B)

Honeywell July 2012
Step Action
13 Repeat steps 1 through 10 for CPU (A) which is Standby CPU.
CPU OS upgradation for this CPU (A) is completed.

14 Power on CPU (A) and change its mode to RUN (by Key switch or
SoftMaster). Both CPUs are in RUN mode being CPU (B) as Master and
CPU (A) as Standby.
4.6 Upgrading OS for Communication Module using

SoftMaster-NM
To upgrade Communication module using SoftMaster-NM, perform the following steps.
Step Action
1 Connect USB cable to Master CPU (for example, CPU A) and launch
SoftMaster-NM.
2 From SoftMaster-NM, choose Online > Upload/Download (File).
The Download/Upload(File) dialog box appears.

July 2012 Honeywell
Step Action
3 Select the communication module and then click BBMBoot. The LED of
FENet module is changed to Download mode and PLC CPU will reset after
BBMBoot is selected.
4 From SoftMaster-NM, choose Online > Connect and then Online >
Upload/Download (File).
The Download/Upload(File) dialog box appears.
The mode is changed to OS Update Mode.
ATTENTION
FDEnet is displayed as communication module only after BBMBoot
execution. Ensure to select the proper Base and Slot number.
5 Select the OS and then click Download.
The Open dialog box appears.

Honeywell July 2012
Step Action
6 Select the FEnet OS Firmware file and then click Open.
The OS download begins. It takes few minutes to complete.
After the download is complete the following message appears.

July 2012 Honeywell
Step Action
7 Power off the Master CPU A and then re-connect the synchronization cable
and I/O cables to CPU A and it changes back to Standby mode.
8 From SoftMaster, choose Online > Control Redundancy and then click
Change Master.
Repeat Step 1 to 8 with CPU B (Master).

9 Choose Online > System Diagnosis from SoftMaster-NM to verify if the OS
version is downloaded to the System.
