Hi Experts here, Is it possible to perform firmware upgrade of Upgrade 6ES7 416-2XK02-0AB0 ver 3.1.3to 6ES7 416-2XK04-0AB0version 4.0? I was not able to get the 6ES7 416-2XK02-0AB0 firmware for version 4.0 from thedownload link, https://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/llisapi.dll?func=cslib.csinfo&nodeid0=10805265&lang=en&siteid=cseus&extranet=standard&viewreg=WW&objid=2858911&caller=rln Does that mean that if I need to use 6ES7 416-2XK04-0AB0, I will not be able to upgrade the firmware of 6ES7 416-2XK02-0AB0 to get 6ES7 416-2XK04-0AB0 ?

Hello, The link you have posted indicates exactly for which CPU the FW is intended. You cannot load a CPU V3.x with a FW for CPUs V4.x Furthermore, for the 2XK04 version, this links shows that the product is canceledsince 2007. http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/17582035 Which means that you can only get it as spare part, but not for new investments. The current version of the CPU416 is V6.x http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/43411965 To configure this new type, check if you have a suitable version of Step7 as indicated in the link. |
