Upgrade the firmware and project

The firmware must be upgraded, if, in a more recent firmware version, an extended
functional scope is available that you would like to use.
In principle, upgrading the firmware functions the same for both the CU310-2 and the 320-2.
Projects cannot be transferred between a CU310 or CU310-2 and a CU320 or a CU320-2.
The firmware for the SINAMICS drive system is distributed in the system. It is installed on
the Control Unit and in every individual DRIVE-CLiQ component.
When it powers up, the Control Unit automatically takes its firmware from the memory card.
As a consequence, it does not have to be specifically upgraded. The Control Unit firmware is
automatically upgraded when replacing the memory card by one with a more recent firmware
version.
The firmware of the DRIVE-CLiQ components is also provided on the memory card of the
Control Unit. With the factory setting p7826 = 1, it is automatically transferred from the
memory card to the DRIVE-CLiQ components when commissioned for the first time. When
upgraded, the firmware is saved (non-volatile) in the DRIVE-CLiQ components.
Once the project has been downloaded or automatic configuration has been carried out, the
firmware is automatically upgraded on all the connected DRIVE-CLiQ components. This
upgrades all DRIVE-CLiQ components to the firmware releases that match the memory card.
This operation can take several minutes. This is indicated by the RDY-LED on the
corresponding components flashing green/red and the Control Unit RDY-LED flashing
orange at 0.5 Hz.
Parameter p7827 indicates the progress.
