You can update the firmware of the Ethernet racks (BMEXBP••00 and BMEXBP••02) by downloading a new firmware version with Unity Loader.
Download the firmware by connecting to any of these modules installed on the rack:
Before performing the update:
NOTE: If you do not stop the PLC before trying to transfer firmware, you are informed by Unity Loader that the PLC must be stopped. After confirming this message, Unity Loader stops the PLC automatically.
The firmware file is included in an *.ldx file.
If the rack power supply is turned off during the update procedure, the backplane firmware remains on the version embedded before the update procedure.
