PROGRAM UPDATING GUIDE COLOR DISPLAY (MM0261809)
Color display has an USB connector for downloading application software. This guide
gives information how to update IC programs with USB memory stick.
STEP 1
Download application files from Notes, MM Automation database (sample: IC400).
Next files should be downloaded:
• 2040_icx00 (software for the display)
• bgimstartup.bmp (start up image)
• def_lng.txt (default language file)
• icx00.zip (software for I/O-modules)
• icx00xx_vx.txt (all available language files)
• langind.txt (language indication file)
STEP 2
Connect USB memory stick to a computer. Add a new folder to memory stick and name
it so that IC system and program version can be recognized (etc. ic400_Version_0_3,
see figure 1). Note that spaces in the folder name are not allowed, use low line “_”
instead. Note that “ApplicationLoader” and “bgim” are not allowed folder names. Copy
downloaded files (STEP 1) to this new folder. Remove USB memory stick from
computer by using “Safely Remove Hardware”-feature.
Figure 1, Files in USB memory stick
Remove memory stick only by using first “Safely Remove Hardware”-feature.
Otherwise data can be corrupted.

STEP 3
If display has been in use (contains an old application), turn ON key switch. If needed,
write down running hours, production data log, alarm log, calibration log, parameter
chance log, crusher setting value and user parameters. Load parameter groups to
system and write down altered parameters (see user manual for more information).
Turn OFF the key switch.
STEP 4
Connect the USB memory stick to display’s USB terminal that is located on backside of
the display. USB-terminal is wired to display’s AMP23 connector (see electric diagrams
for more information).
Turn the key switch ON. If the display already has a program in it, press F5 button (5th
button from left) from the display and keep it pressed until screen turns to black with
one text line (see figure 2), after that release F5 button. If F5 button is not released in 3
seconds, Application Loader is closed and IC program starts (if there is one). If the
display is new, no action is needed, Application Loader window is opened and USB
memory stick’s content can be seen from the display (see figure 3).

STEP 5
Press F5-button to access Versions setup window (see figure 4). In Versions setup
window press F5-button again to clearing application folder and the NVRAM (see figure
5). Clear previous data from display’s application folder by pressing F4, F5, F4, F5, F4
and F5. Then the Clear NVRAM or files/Reset password -window is opened (see figure
6). Delete application files (e.g. ic400.zip, 2040_ic400 and language files) by pressing
F3 (Delete files) button. Confirm files deleting by pressing F2 (OK) button (see figure 7).
Clear Display memory (e.g. trends’ data, hour counters, display parameters etc.) by
pressing F2 (Clear NVRAM) button. Confirm NVRAM clear by pressing F2 (OK) button.
Delete application files -function will delete display’s application software.
Clear NVRAM will delete saved parameter groups, trends’ data and hours.

STEP 6
After old application files are deleted, return to USB-content window (see fig. 8) by
pressing F1 button. Select desired Application folder by using F1 and F2 (arrows)
buttons. After correct folder is highlighted, press F3 (Copy) to copy application files to
the display. After F3 is pressed the system updates the start up image and then after
application and language files are copied to display. Copy process’ status can be
monitored from the top row’s text line (see fig. 8).

STEP 7
After application data is copied to the display, there is no longer information on windows
top row (“Copying application files” text disappears). Switch the key switch OFF and
remove USB memory stick from the display. Switch key switch back ON again.
There can be seen now a new startup image on the display (see fig. 9) for about 15
seconds.

STEP 8 (NOT IN ALL SYSTEMS)
Display changes to Module update -window (see fig. 10) after the startup image.
Module quantity and names (ECM, HCM, DCM etc.) depends of the system. Every
modules Module update and Parameter area emptying checkboxes are checked as
default value. If you are updating the display with a new program version and you would
like to keep the parameters which are in the modules memory, remove the check –mark
from all modules Parameter area emptying checkboxes on the right side.
Move in the window by F4 and F5 buttons. Check/uncheck the checkmark by F3 button.
Start the program update by activating the Start update button in the top row and press
F3.

STEP 9
The modules program update will begin (see fig. 11). There is an estimation how long
update will last and updating progress can be seen from the bar and from the
percentage value.

STEP 10
After the I/O-modules programs are updated, progress bar shows 100% and there is an
icon that request user to switch OFF the power (see fig. 12). Switch key switch OFF
and switch it back ON again.

STEP 11
System starts again with startup image (see fig. 9). After about 20 seconds, the IC
application will start. Set all parameters according to latest version of parameter
document. Note that unit may have structure related parameter values. Contact Metso
Minerals (Tampere) Service Department for more information.
