Upgrade of Compact HMI 800 to a New Version from a
Ghost Image
The software upgrade of a Compact HMI 800 is for some versions delivered as a
Ghost image. In these cases follow the steps below to upgrade the
Compact HMI 800 to a new version:
1. Backup the configuration data in all nodes. For the Compact HMI 800
configuration data, use the system backup function to make a backup, as
described in
2. Make a safety Ghost copy of the C disk of the server computer, using the
Norton Ghost software supplied in the original delivery of the
Compact HMI 800.
3. Boot the server computer from the Ghost CD and restore the ghost image
containing the SW upgrade.
4. Now the application and system data should be restored. To restore the system
to an original state (without application data) the backup residing on the DVD
with the ghost dump should be used. To restore the application created with an
earlier system version, restore the dump created in step 1.
