1. General information
The software can no longer be installed under the DOS operating system.
Requirement: Operating system Windows NT4.0 / Windows2000 / WIN XP
Despite a different specification in the Installation & Start-Up Guide,
installation under Win98 and WIN ME is not possible.
With the installation program, the application parameters can be modified, meaning
that
- languages can be changed
- text can be added or edited
- additional languages can be selected
- operator panel machine data and MPI parameters (NETNAMES.INI) can be changed
or replaced
- the human-machine interface can be extended.
Through the menus and input fields of the installation software, help texts can be
called up by pressing the F1 key.
Alarm texts, default display machine data and the selected languages are saved on
the PCU 20 and must be specified with the upgrade.

Procedure:
See Installation & Start-Up Guide IAM_IM2_D.pdf included in the software CD under
SW_6_5\Documentation.
Note:
Under Windows 95/98 ME, WIN NT4.0, Windows 2000 or WIN XP you will have to install
the “Acrobat Reader” software in order to read the pdf files on the CD.
The current version can be downloaded from www.adobe.com.
Start the PCU 20, wait for the serial number to be displayed and then press key
“6” on the operator panel. The PCU 20 is started in the update mode. If a PC
card is available, a menu will be displayed in which the update variant can be
selected.
By pressing “-“, the data are copied directly from the PC card.
By pressing “0”, user data such as the configured network data can be saved on
the PC card and transferred again to the PCU 20 hardware with the new software
version.
By pressing “8”, the entire PCU 20 Flash image can be transferred to an ATA or
Compact Flash Card (data backup). The file name is PCU_20.ABB; if this file is
already available, it will be overwritten without checkback.
Software installation, application disks have been omitted and replaced by a new installation tool.

AP01089152: CF cards do no longer function
The software release contains a new Bios version (V 2.0). With it, alll Siemens SINUMERIK 1GB CF cards
will now be supported.
Secondary conditions:
An 8MB image requires a Compact Flash Card of at least 16MB, while a 16MB image
requires a Compact Flash Card of at least 32MB. The image "\PCU_20.ABB” must be
available in the root directory of the Compact Flash Card.
The Compact Flash Cards (empty cards) with 32MB (6FC5313-1AG00-0AA0) and 64MB
(6FC5313-2AG00-0AA0) are available for operation with the operator component
SINUMERIK PCU 20.
Adapter for CF cards (customary); for example see:
www.sandisk.com/retail/pca.asp
Note:
The Compact Flash Card can be inserted into the PCU 20 only by using a (customary)
CF-PCMCIA adapter.
7. Supplementary conditions
Due to error MGLdm01069, files are not displayed in the Program operating area.
After the software upgrade of the PCU 20 with CF card and ABB file, hieroglyphics
are sporadically displayed in the "IBN\Logische Laufwerke\Dateitypen"
("Startup\Logic_drives\File_types") menu.
This setting acts as a filter in the Program operating area and files are not
displayed.
Remedy:
In case of updates with Compact Flash (all versions) and updates with linear flash
up to version 6.4.8, please check the IBN\Logische Laufwerke\Dateitypen
("Startup\Logic_drives\File_types") in the operating area and delete, if necessary.
If you change or replace the hard key configuration (keys.ini file) in the
configuration files, all INI files indicated in that file will be listed and you
can change and replace them; however, these data will not automatically be
entered in the image. This has to be done explicitly when installing the system
software by clicking “Insert files”.
The functionality "overstore" (OP-mode AUTO or MDA) requires at least 3KB free
NCU memory
