Prerequisite (firmware updates)
You can find the latest firmware for SIMOTION D
● On the SIMOTION SCOUT DVDs (e.g. at ...\3_D4xx\Firmware\V4.2\....).
● at Internet address (http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/vi
ew/en/31045047)
Upgrading the SIMOTION D410 automatically upgrades the firmware of all connected
SINAMICS DRIVE-CLiQ components.
Note
Observe the readme files and upgrade instructions included in the delivery of new
SIMOTION versions.
Use only CompactFlash Cards that have been approved for use with the SIMOTION D410
and whose bootloader version is correct.
You can find the compatibility relationships in the SIMOTION SCOUT Add-Ons "software
products" compatibility list, as well as at Internet address
(http://support.automation.siemens.
com/WW/view/en/18857317).
NOTICE
The upgrade operation deletes all project data and parameters from the CompactFlash
Card!
Prerequisite (project updates)
You have updated your project and, if necessary, adapted the device type and device
version. For details, refer to the section titled Adapting a project (Upgrading the project /
Repl
acing the SIMOTION controller) (Page 172).
5.4.3 Upgrade via IT DIAG
SIMOTION D410 has a Web server.
In addition to customized websites and comprehensive device/diagnostic information, one of
the options that IT DIAG offers is performing firmware and project updates using a standard
PC with Internet Explorer.
From firmware version V4.2 it is no longer necessary to purchase licenses for SIMOTION IT
DIAG and SIMOTION OPC-XML.
Note
An Ethernet or PROFINET interface is required for IT DIAG. For this reason, IT DIAG is only
available on the SIMOTION D410 PN, not the D410 DP.
