How do I upgrade firmware for intelligent I/O modules in an NIU station?
Upgrades to intelligent I/O modules in an NIU station are handled through the expansion port located on the left side of the NIU module using cable IC200CBL002. Can I make my own I/O cables? Yes. Kits are available. Specifically, if you who want to build your own cables, part number IC200ACC304 is a connector kit for two cables. In addition, if you require a cable of a unique length, part number IC200CBL230 is a 3M cable with a connector on only one end. Where can I find terminal assignments for the IC200CBL230? Terminal assignments for the IC200CBL230 are given in VersaMax I/O Modules, Power Supplies, and Carriers Users Manual (GFK-1504). Termination assignments are given for both Alpha and Belden versions of the cable.
