CHAPTER 3 FIRMWARE UPGRADE
The following topics describe how to upgrade the firmware of the WDM
and the Wireless Field Interface field devices.
3.1 Upgrading the WDM firmware
Download the latest OneWireless installation package (WDM firmware)
from the Honeywell Process Solutions website.
CAUTION! Upgrading the WDM firmware makes the WDM
offline for some time. During this operation, all the
devices drop and join the network again. Once
initiated, you cannot terminate the firmware upgrade
operation. The WDM must not be turned on while the
upgrade is in progress.
Prerequisites
Ensure that the speed/duplex setting for the switch port to which the
WDM is connected is set to Auto.
To upgrade the WDM firmware
1. On the Selection Panel, select the WDM.
2. On the ribbon bar, in the Upgrade group, click Application. The
WDM Update dialog box appears.
3. Click Browse to navigate to the directory location of the Platform
firmware file and click Open. The WDM firmware file has a .tar.gz
extension.
