MM200 MOTOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
To upgrade the MM200 firmware, follow the procedures listed in this section. Upon
successful completion of this procedure, the MM200 will have new firmware installed with
the factory default setpoints.The latest firmware files are available from the GE Multilin
website at http://www.gegridsolutions.com.
EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup software prevents incompatible firmware from being
loaded into a MM200 relay.
Before upgrading firmware, it is very important to save the current settings to a file on
your PC. After the firmware has been upgraded, it will be necessary to load this file back
into the MM200 relay. Refer to Backing up Settings for details on saving relay setpoints to a
file.
Loading new firmware into the MM200 flash memory is accomplished as follows:
1.
Connect the RJ45 port on the relay (labelled "RS485 to Control Panel") to the RS232
port (COM1) on the local PC, using an RS232 (female)-to-RJ45 (male) custom cable (p/n
0804-0180).
If there is no RS232 port on your PC:
1.1.
If you are using the MM200 Graphical Control Panel (GCP) or Hand Held
Device (HHD), connect the USB port on the front of the MM200 relay, to the USB
port on the local PC, using a USB 2.0 type A to mini B cable. This configuration
(1) is shown below.
1.2.
If you are using the Basic Control Panel (BCP), and your PC has an RS232 port,
disconnect the existing RJ45 cable from the side of the base unit (labelled
"RS485 to Control Panel"), and connect an RS232-to-RJ45 cable from the PC to
that same RJ45 port on the side of the base unit. This configuration (2) is shown
below.
1.3.
If you are using no control panel, and your PC has an RS232 port, connect an
RS232-to-RJ45 cable from the PC to the RJ45 port on the side of the base unit
(labelled "RS485 to Control Panel"). This configuration (2) is shown below.
Note 1: If your PC does not have an RS232 port, you will have to use a USB-to-serial
converter cable (p/n 0100-0001), available at the GE Online Store (http://
www.gegridsolutions.com). This configuration (3) is shown below.
Note 2: If the unit does not have Graphical Control Panel (GCP), you will have to use a
RS232 to RJ45 custom cable (p/n 0804-0180), available at the GE Online Store (http://
www.gegridsolutions.com).
