Chapter 7 Terminal Connections DH-485/DH+ Terminals with a catalog number 2711P-RN6 or 2711P-RN6K communication module support communication with these networks: Communication Module • DH+ networks • DH-485 networks The communication module has a separate port for each communication protocol. You can communicate with only one network at one time. Figure 15 - DH-485/DH+ Communication Module Connectors Allen Bradley...
Refer to the figures to attach the RS-485 connector to a Belden 3106A or 9842 cable. Refer to Connections to Controllers on page 118 if you are using standard Allen-Bradley cables. A daisy-chained network is recommended. We do not recommend a IMPORTANT hybrid star/daisy chain networks as shown.
Chapter 7 Terminal Connections DH+ Network Connections Use a Belden 9463 twin-axial or equivalent cable, catalog number 1770-CD, to connect a terminal to a DH+ link. You can connect a DH+ link in two ways: • Trunk line/drop line - from the drop line to the connector screw terminals on the DH+ connectors of the processor.

Chapter Firmware Upgrades Chapter Objectives This chapter provides topics on how to upgrade firmware in a terminal. Topic Page Terminal Firmware Download Firmware Files Firmware Upgrade Wizard Upgrading Terminal Firmware from a Storage Device Upgrade Terminal Firmware over the Network Terminal Firmware Firmware components are packaged as execute-in-place (XIP) regions in a single System Code (SC) .img file.
Chapter 8 Firmware Upgrades Download Firmware Files Before upgrading your terminal firmware, you need to download the appropriate firmware installation package, for example, PVP700-1500_60000.exe, from the Rockwell Automation customer website. This installation package contains: • Firmware Upgrade Package (FUP) contains an autorun executable and the new firmware files.
Firmware Upgrades Chapter 8 Upgrading Terminal Upgrading firmware from a storage device is a two-step process. First, you create a firmware upgrade card with the required firmware files. Secondly, you load the Firmware from a Storage card in the target terminal to upgrade the firmware. Device The firmware upgrade card can be a USB flash drive or an SD card.

Chapter 8 Firmware Upgrades 5. From this dialog, optionally select the KEPServer drivers you want installed on your terminal, then click Next. The final dialog summarizes your choices for creating the firmware upgrade card. 6. Click Finish to copy the firmware files to the firmware upgrade card.
Firmware Upgrades Chapter 8 Upgrade Terminal Firmware Using Firmware Upgrade Card Follows these steps to transfer firmware files from the USB flash drive or SD card to the terminal. This is the firmware upgrade card you just created. • IMPORTANT Do not remove or accidently disconnect the USB flash drive or SD card while a firmware upgrade is in process.
Chapter 8 Firmware Upgrades Upgrade Terminal You can upgrade firmware in a terminal connected to a computer over a direct network connection. The network connection requires a computer running the Firmware over the Network Firmware Upgrade Wizard (FUW) and RSLinx Enterprise software, version 5.0 or later.
