Important Considerations for CL I, Div. 2 Installations

Ethernet PLC-5- 1785-L20E- 1785-L40E- 1785-L80ESeries 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

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 PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the PLC-5 user memory will be lost because the firmware update procedure erases memory.

Firmware Update Instructions for Ethernet, Enhanced and ControlNet PLC-5 Programmable Controllers 5

1. Save the PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an EEPROM.

2. Remove power from the PLC-5.

3. Remove the PLC-5 battery cover and disconnect the battery.

4. Remove the PLC-5 from the chassis.

5. Locate and document the PLC-5 hardware Ethernet address.The address is on the circuit board label toward the back of the PLC-5.

6. If applicable, disconnect the coprocessor or PLC-5 Ethernet Interface sidecar module.

7. Reinstall the PLC-5 into the chassis.

8. Apply power to the PLC-5.

9. Through the Ethernet port, use either a switch, hub or crossover cable to connect the computer to the PLC-5.

10. Make sure the TCP/IP is loaded and running on the personal computer.

11. Make certain the computer’s Ethernet IP address and subnet mask (for example, 255.255.255.0 for Class C) is entered.The PLC-5 should have an IP address with the same first three octets as the computer’s Ethernet network interface address.

If it doesn’t, then you can assign the IP either by going online

with the PLC-5 over DH+™ or serially, and configuring the IP address for Channel 2 via the channel configuration screen (uncheck the BOOTP enabled box). Or, by setting up a BOOTP server with this module’s assigned IP address.

12. Turn the PLC-5 keyswitch to PROGRAM mode.

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 PLC-5 through the Ethernet channel:

– use either a switch, hub or crossover cable to connect the computer to the PLC-5

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 PLC-5.

Your firmware update is complete. If you have any questions, call Rockwell Automation Technical Support at 440.646.5800.

Enhanced PLC-5 - Series E or Later

To update these series of Enhanced PLC-5 firmware, you must first use ControlFLASH and then if applicable, replace EPROMS. To start this firmware update, follow these steps:

Step 1 - Prepare the PLC-5 Programmable Controller

1. Save the PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an EEPROM.

2. Disconnect all cables (serial, DH+, ControlNet, Ethernet, etc.) from the PLC-5.

3. Remove power from the PLC-5 and remove it from the chassis.

4. Remove the PLC-5 battery cover and disconnect the battery. This resets the serial port to its default configuration so that the PLC-5 and ControlFLASH can communicate.

5. If applicable, disconnect the coprocessor or PLC-5 Ethernet Interface sidecar module.

6. Verify that the serial port DIP switches are set for RS-232.

7. Reinstall the PLC-5 and apply power.

8. Turn the PLC-5 keyswitch to PROGRAM mode.

ATTENTION

!You must save the PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the PLC-5 user memory will be lost because the firmware update procedure erases memory.

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. Connect the computer to the PLC-5 using a 1784-CP10 or -CP11 cable between the computer and Channel 0 of the PLC-5

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 PLC-5.
