Allen-Bradley 1336 PLUS II Manuel utilisateur

Instructions

This document provides information on upgrading the 1336 PLUS II

ﬁrmware, including a description of the Flash memory used in the

drive and the procedures required for downloading the latest ﬁrmware

revision. For detailed drive information, refer to 1336 PLUS II User

Manual, publication 1336 PLUS-5.3.

What is Flash Memory?

The drive ﬁrmware (including parameter layout and operating

algorithms) resides in a form of programmable read-only memory

called “Flash Memory.” Flash memory allows the user to easily

upgrade the drive ﬁrmware locally using a standard computer and the

supplied Firmware Download Module. The latest ﬁrmware ﬁles are

available on the Internet or from your local Allen-Bradley Sales

Ofﬁce.

Main Control Board Power

Requirements

In order to upgrade ﬁrmware, the Main Control Board must have

power applied. This can be accomplished through one of the

following methods:

•Application of AC line voltage per instructions in Chapter 2 of

the 1336 PLUS II User Manual. This is the normal method for

installed drives.

•External power supply through the auxiliary 24V DC input at

terminal block TB4 (B frame & up, see Auxiliary Inputs – TB4,

TB6 in the User Manual).

•External power supply through power connector on module (all

drives). This method does not power the entire logic section, but

provides enough power to activate the ﬂash memory. This is the

best method for drives not yet installed. The external supply must

provide 6.0 - 9.0V DC, 0.5A and is connected on the right-side of

the module (see Figure 1).

Important:

Do Not apply power until instructed to do so.

Installation Procedure Important:

During the time that the ﬂash memory is being upgraded,

the drive will be in a “non-operational state” and will not

havetheabilitytocontrolthemotor.Becertainthatplacing

the drive in a non-operational state is acceptable.

1. Remove and lock-out all incoming power to the drive.

2. If a HIM (or other snap-in module) is installed, remove it by

carefully squeezing the locking tabs-in and pulling-out.

3. A Frame Drives - If a Control Interface Board (L option) is

installed, carefully remove the board by loosening the 2 captive

screws. Position the board and attached wires off to the side of the

chassis.

4. Locate a spare jumper on the Main Control Board and install it at

J20 (see Figure 1). This jumper allows the ﬂash EEPROM to be

overwritten with a new version of ﬁrmware.

!ATTENTION: This drive and module contain ESD

(Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts and assemblies.

Static control precautions are required when installing,

testing, servicing or repairing this assembly. Component

damage may result if ESD control procedures are not

followed. If you are not familiar with static control

procedures, reference publication 8000-4.5.2, “Guarding

AgainstElectrostaticDamage”oranyotherapplicableESD

protection handbook.

!ATTENTION: To avoid a shock hazard, assure that all

power to the drive has been removed before proceeding. In

addition, verify that the DC bus has discharged by

measuring across the “+DC” and “–DC” terminals of TB1

with a voltmeter. The voltage should be 0.0VDC.
