Upgrading a compile cycle
To upgrade a compile cycle installed in the control, under no circumstances is it sufficient to
just exchange the corresponding ELF file. If only the ELF file is replaced, then this can result
in undefined behavior of the NCK software due to inconsistent data of the memory and data
management.
Execution
Perform the following actions to upgrade a compile cycle:
1. Create an NC archive without compile cycles:
Operating area: "Commissioning" > "ETC" key > "Commissioning archive" > "Creating a
commissioning archive" > "OK" >
-
-
2. Delete the old compile cycle:
Operating area: "Commissioning" > "System data" in the directory: NC data > "Compile
cycles" > file: <Identifier>.ELF
3. Download the new compile cycle. See Chapter: "Loading compile cycles [Page 435]"
4. Initiate a power on reset with an NCK general reset (NCK commissioning switch: position
"1"). See:
References:
Commissioning Manual IBN CNC: NCK, PLC, drive; Chapter: General tips > Separate
NCK and PLC general reset > NCK general reset
5. Download the NC archive created under Point 1 into the NCU again.
Operating area: "Commissioning" > "ETC" key > "Commissioning archive" > "Read-in
commissioning archive" > "OK"
Note
Version check
To check the version of the newly loaded compile cycle, see Chapter "Software version of a
compile cycle [Page 441]"
Several loaded compile cycles
If several compile cycles are loaded in the control, when upgrading a compile cycle
according to the process described above, the other compile cycles remain unchanged.
Newly created data
If the new compile cycle creates new data, which were still not available in the previous
version, then after subsequently booting the control, these are preassigned default values.
