The upgrade of the CoPro Ethernet Port is complete by installing a single file
using the Unity Pro v2.2 or higher OS loader. Please note that prior version of the
OS loader are not compatible with this revision of the firmware. You MUST be at
the proper OS loader revision of 2.2 or higher.
Note: If the CoPro firmware version is less than v2.2, you must upgrade to v2.2
using Unity OS loader v2.2 only.
Note: the CPU Firmware MUST be at OS2.31 or higher before the Ethernet port
is upgraded. If the CPU is not at this revision level the Ethernet port of the CoPro
will be at its default IP address (as defined by the MAC address).
For Quantum configurations, it is imperative that the update is being carried out
in the following order:
• Update of Ethernet coprocessors for 140CPU65150/ 140CPU65160/
140CPU65260.
• Update of PLC processors.
Special Case: channel not configured.
If the Ethernet channel is not configured in the Unity Pro application, it takes the
IP address built from its MAC address:
085.016.xxx.yyy where xxx and yyy are the last two numbers of the MAC
address.
Example:
The MAC address is (in hexadecimal): 00 80 F4 01 12 20.
In this case the default IP address is (in decimal): 085.016.018.032.
Quantum CoPro Ethernet Port Upgrade Procedure
EIO000000006404 61/103
Step1
Ensure the CoPro Ethernet port to be upgraded is listed in the Applicable
Modules section of this document. Refer to the CoPro Ethernet port web pages
for version numbers.
Step2
Install the CoPro module in a system consisting of only the PLC CPU, Power
Supply, and Rack. Configure the PLC system with an ‘empty’ program containing
only the module’s Ethernet link IP address configuration.
Ensure the CoPro Ethernet port has a configured IP address.
Ensure the only devices connected to the Ethernet network are the PC running
the OS loader and the CoPro Ethernet port module.
