File Content: Firmware Version V2.5

As of firmware version 2.5 all firmware updates are triggered by the command file SDCARD.INI. This is independent from the way of the firmware update (SD memory card, FTP, write file to plc, …). In addition a result file of the firmware update is generated (SDCARD.RDY, identical path as SDCARD.INI, see Initializing an SD memory card :doc:`f40975c4e38c28ca0a33139000473a6a`\ ). For the group [FirmwareUpdate] the new parameters 11, 12 and 13 are defined.

SDCARD.INI for update via FTP in part:

In this case the files PM595.gza, AC500eth.nxf, S560_1.gza, S560_2.gza, AC500pnm.nxf and NX_ECM.nxf are transferred via FTP to the RAM disk of the PLC. The last step is the transfer of the file SDCARD.INI to the RAM disk of the PLC. At the end of the update the result file SDCARD.RDY is generated. The evaluation of this file shows the results of the updates.
