Firmware Update Instructions for Ethernet,
Enhanced and ControlNet PLC-5 Programmable
Controllers
Purpose
This document describes how to update firmware on your Ethernet™,
Enhanced or ControlNet™ PLC-5® programmable controller.
Firmware Update Contents
Depending on your requirements, the firmware update kit may
contain:
•
•
•
•
•
Hardware and Software
Requirements
ControlFLASH software with the firmware update
these installation instructions
applicable firmware release notes
a firmware revision label
firmware EPROMS, if applicable
Your computer must meet the following requirements to perform the
firmware update:
• at least a 486 processor
• Windows® 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT® operating system
• at least 16 Mbytes of available memory
• for ControlNet phases 1.0 and 1.25, a computer booted with
DOS 6.22 or later
To perform Ethernet Series C and D firmware updates, you will need a
Network Interface Card and a switch, Ethernet hub or crossover cable.
To perform other updates, you need a shielded serial cable, either
1784-CP10 or 1784-CP11.
ATTENTION
!

You must save the PLC-5 processor memory to your
hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the
PLC-5 user memory will be lost because the
firmware update procedure erases memory.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge,
which can cause internal damage and affect normal
operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle
this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential
static.
• Wear an approved grounding wrist strap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component
boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the
equipment.
• If available, use a static-safe workstation.
• When not in use, store the equipment in
appropriate static-safe packaging.

Important Considerations for CL I, Div. 2 Installations
WARNING
!
When you connect or disconnect the battery, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an
explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure
that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding.
• For safety information on the handling of lithium
batteries, including handling and disposal of
leaking batteries, refer to Guidelines for Handling
Lithium Batteries, publication AG-5.4
• Store batteries in a cool, dry environment. We
recommend 25° C with 40% or 60% relative
humidity. You may store batteries up to 30 days
between -45° - 85° C, such as during transportation.
To avoid possible leakage, do not store batteries
above 60° C for more than 30 days.

Series C and D
To update these series of Ethernet PLC-5 firmware, you must first use
ControlFLASH through the Ethernet channel, and then replace the
applicable EPROMS. To start this firmware update, follow these steps:
Step 1 - Prepare the PLC-5 Programmable Controller
ATTENTION
!
Publication 1785-IN022B-EN-P - November 2002
When you install or remove the module with power
applied, or you connect or disconnect the serial cable
with power applied to this programmable controller
or the device on the other end of the cable, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an
explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure
that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding.
You must save the PLC-5 processor memory to your
hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not, the
PLC-5 user memory will be lost because the
firmware update procedure erases memory.

1. Save the PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an
EEPROM.
2. Remove power from the PLC-5.
3. Remove the PLC-5 battery cover and disconnect the battery.
4. Remove the PLC-5 from the chassis.
5. Locate and document the PLC-5 hardware Ethernet address.
The address is on the circuit board label toward the back of the
PLC-5.
6. If applicable, disconnect the coprocessor or PLC-5 Ethernet
Interface sidecar module.
7. Reinstall the PLC-5 into the chassis.
8. Apply power to the PLC-5.
9. Through the Ethernet port, use either a switch, hub or crossover
cable to connect the computer to the PLC-5.
10. Make sure the TCP/IP is loaded and running on the personal
computer.
11. Make certain the computer’s Ethernet IP address and subnet
mask (for example, 255.255.255.0 for Class C) is entered.The
PLC-5 should have an IP address with the same first three octets
as the computer’s Ethernet network interface address.
If it doesn’t, then you can assign the IP either by going online
with the PLC-5 over DH+™ or serially, and configuring the IP
address for Channel 2 via the channel configuration screen
(uncheck the BOOTP enabled box). Or, by setting up a BOOTP
server with this module’s assigned IP address.
12. Turn the PLC-5 keyswitch to PROGRAM mode.

recommend to install this version into the same directory.
4. Follow the Setup Wizard as it guides you through the
installation process.
Step 3 - Perform the ControlFLASH Update
ATTENTION
!
Failure to follow these procedures exactly or to
cause an interruption during them may result in
an inoperable PLC-5.
1. If you have not already done so, connect the computer to the
PLC-5 through the Ethernet channel:
– use either a switch, hub or crossover cable to connect the
computer to the PLC-5
2. Close all applications including RSLinx™.

4. Since you removed the PLC-5 from the chassis, you must reenter
the computer’s Ethernet IP address and subnet mask (for
example, 255.255.255.0 for Class C).The PLC-5 should have an
IP address with the same first three octets as the computer’s
Ethernet network interface address.
If it doesn’t, then you can assign the IP either by going online
with the PLC-5 over DH+ or serially, and configuring the IP
address for Channel 2 via the channel configuration screen
(uncheck the BOOTP enabled box). Or, by setting up a BOOTP
server with this module’s assigned IP address.

Step 4 - Apply the Firmware Revision Label
IMPORTANT
It is important to apply this label to your
programmable controller to ensure you receive the
correct version back if you send it in for repair.
1. Apply the new firmware revision label on or below the existing
product identification label (depending on the series and
revision of PLC-5). Make certain to place the label so that the
current series and revision information is clearly visible.

Step 5 - Complete the Firmware Update
1. Install the PLC-5 into the chassis.
2. Reconnect any cables.
3. Apply power to the PLC-5.
4. After powerup, check the status of the PLC-5:
If:
Then:
PROC LED is solid red and CH1A DH+ LED is blinking
green
Update is complete. Proceed to Step 5 below.
PROC LED is solid red but the CH1A DH+ LED is not
blinking green
Make certain that all new EPROMS are properly installed (notches
on circuit board and EPROMS match, there are no bent pins,
EPROMS are installed in the correct location).
5. When the update is successful:
– restore all connections to the PLC-5

– download the program back into memory and make certain
that it runs properly
Your firmware update is complete. If you have any questions, call
Rockwell Automation Technical Support at 440.646.5800.
Enhanced PLC-5 - Series E
or Later
To update these series of Enhanced PLC-5 firmware, you must first use
ControlFLASH and then if applicable, replace EPROMS. To start this
firmware update, follow these steps:
Step 1 - Prepare the PLC-5 Programmable Controller
ATTENTION
!
You must save the PLC-5 processor memory to
your hard disk or to an EEPROM. If you do not,
the PLC-5 user memory will be lost because the
firmware update procedure erases memory.
1. Save the PLC-5 processor memory to your hard disk or to an
EEPROM.
2. Disconnect all cables (serial, DH+, ControlNet, Ethernet, etc.)
from the PLC-5.
3. Remove power from the PLC-5 and remove it from the chassis.
4. Remove the PLC-5 battery cover and disconnect the battery. This
resets the serial port to its default configuration so that the PLC-5
and ControlFLASH can communicate.
5. If applicable, disconnect the coprocessor or PLC-5 Ethernet
Interface sidecar module.
6. Verify that the serial port DIP switches are set for RS-232.
7. Reinstall the PLC-5 and apply power.
8. Turn the PLC-5 keyswitch to PROGRAM mode.
