Firmware Upgrade Wizard
The Firmware Upgrade Wizard (FUW) lets you upgrade firmware in a
PanelView Plus terminal. Using the FUW, you can:
• create a firmware upgrade card (CompactFlash card) that you
then load in the card slot of the terminal to upgrade firmware.
• upgrade firmware in a terminal that is connected to your
desktop computer using a Serial, Ethernet, or Network
connection via RSLinx Enterprise software (for supported
protocols).
The FUW is available in FactoryTalk View Studio software or with the
Firmware Upgrade Kit.
