SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade 1. Save the current SLC 5/05 processor program. IMPORTANT The user program is cleared as part of the operating system upgrade process. You must restore your program after successfully loading the operating system upgrade. 2. Note the IP address assigned to the SLC 5/05 processor. When updating the processor, use BOOTP or fixed IP address, not DHCP.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade 5 This returns the processor to the initial factory conditions. GND VBB Use ControlFLASH ATTENTION: Do not interrupt the flash procedure. Once you have begun to download the firmware for either the daughtercard (step 18) or the motherboard (step 24), the SLC 5/05 is put into an unrecoverable state if you lose power or communications for any reason. 1. Launch the ControlFLASH application under Programs>Flash Programming Tools. 2.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade 3. Insert the SLC 5/05 processor into an SLC chassis. 4. Attach an Ethernet cable to the processor from your computer (or a hub). IMPORTANT If you are connecting to the SLC 5/05 processor through a hub, you can use a standard Ethernet patch cable. If you are connecting directly to the SLC 5/05 processor from your computer, you need to use an Ethernet crossover cable. 5. Apply power to the chassis. 6.

The download process of the firmware takes approximately 3 minutes. 25. Open the AB_SNMP dialog box from the task bar if it does not appear automatically. Follow the dialog box prompts to do the following: • Verify the LEDs have stopped flashing. • Turn off power to the chassis. • Remove the processor.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade • Set the motherboard jumper J4 back to Protect. • Re-insert the processor. • Apply power to the chassis. 26. Once you have re-applied power, wait for the ENET LED indicator to turn solid green. Click OK. The AB_SNMP – BOOTP Server Running dialog box may appear. The Update Status dialog box appears. If the update was successful, the status text box is green and has an appropriate message.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade 15 If the update was not successful, the status text box is red and has an appropriate message. 27. Click OK and you are returned to the Welcome to ControlFLASH dialog box. 28. You may either continue upgrading additional SLC 5/05 processors by clicking Next, or you may exit the program by clicking Cancel. If you click Cancel, you are asked to verify that you want to end the update session.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade After Successfully Updating Your SLC 5/05 Processor 1. Remove power from the SLC 500 power supply and remove the processor from the chassis. ATTENTION: Do not remove the processor from the SLC 500 chassis until all power is removed from the SLC 500 power supply. 2. Apply the enclosed operating system upgrade label to the SLC 5/05 processor nameplate. 3. Re-insert the processor into the chassis and apply power. 4.
SLC 5/05 Processors Firmware/Operating System ControlFLASH Upgrade • 17 power down the processor and check the J4 jumper position. ATTENTION: Do not remove the processor from the SLC 500 chassis until all power is removed from the SLC 500 power supply. 3. Restart the firmware upgrade procedure in the Use ControlFLASH section. Target Module Not in Proper State for Programming The following dialog box appears when this error occurs: To clear this error: 1. Place the SLC 5/05 processor into PROG mode. 2.
