This chapter presents the materials used for the firmware update by the user.
2.1 SOFTWARE
2.1.1 WPS 2
It is necessary to have the WPS Programming Software (“ WEG Programming Suite ”) installed on your PC. This
software is available for download on the website www.weg.net or through the link downloadcenter/wps.
2.2 HARDWARE
The hardware interface required for the connection between the PC and the device to be updated (frequency inverter
or accessory) depends on each device family.
Device Interface
WARNING!
! It is recommended to keep the device turned off during setup (before making connections).
2.2.1 CFW500
The CFW500 frequency inverter could be updated by any plug-in, using the ModBus protocol and the serial interface
1, however a USB-RS485 interface converter is required. The inverter must be parameterized, and the connections
made as shown in Figure 2.2 on page 2-2.
NOTE!
✓ For further details, see to the installation, configuration and operation guide of the corresponding
expansion module, available for download on the website: www.weg.net.
WARNING!
! Only turn-on the CFW500 inverter, after connecting the hardware interface elements.

NOTE!
✓ The USB-RS485 converter does not necessarily have to be the model shown in the Figure 2.2 on
page 2-2. Any converter from any manufacturer can be used. However, it is recommended to use
the USB-RS485 interface converter from Novus (item 11511558).
NOTE!
✓ If the remote HMI is connected to the product, it must be disconnected before realize the connection
showed in Figure 2.2 page 2-2

PROCEDURE
3 PROCEDURE
This chapter presents the procedures for updating the firmware by the user. With the setup installed, according to
Figure 2.1 on page 2-1, and perform the procedures below.
For the correct configuration of the serial port to be used in the communication, it is necessary to use the Windows
Device Manager (indicates the serial port connected to the equipment). The computer name in the device manager
is purposely unreadable. The Figure 3.1 shows how to check the COM port used.

The device firmware update from WPS can be accessed through the “Online” menu. Check Figure 3.2 below:
NOTE!
✓ Always verify the WPS updates, using the “Help’ menu.
NOTE!
✓ It is not necessary to have a project or resource created for the device to be updated.
CFW500 | 3-1
PROCEDURE
Select the device to be updated. If you cannot find your device in the list, check if you already have the firmware
update functionality via WPS through the Compatibility Table on page 0-5.
The interface configuration setup shown in Figure 2.2 on page 2-2 must be in accordance with parameters P0308,
P0310, P0311 and P0312 adjusted on the device. Click on “Test” and after identification (Online device), click on
“Next”.
3-2 | CFW500
PROCEDURE
NOTE!
✓ Never change the values of parameters P0308, P0310, P0311 and P0312 during a connection.
Changing these parameters causes an instant communication loss between the PC and the
equipment.
NOTE!
✓ For more information on configuring the serial interface (parameters P0308, P0310, P0311 e P0312),
refer to CFW500 Programming Manual, avaliable on site: www.weg.net.
Select the firmware file with the desired version. Once selected, click on “Finish”.
CFW500 | 3-3
PROCEDURE
NOTE!
✓ The firmware file (binary) for download must be obtained, in advance, from the supplier / technical
assistance.
NOTE!
✓ It is not necessary to know the values of the voltage and current fields of the device. It is recommended
to keep the data preloaded.
NOTE!
✓ It is recommended before downloading the firmware:
Check if the SoftPLC application is stopped (set P1001 = 0, if necessary);
Make sure the device is not in operation (motor running).
The firmware download starts, wait for the process to complete, typically between 4 and 5 minutes. The
informations are presented in the Output window and status bar as the figure below:
3-4 | CFW500
PROCEDURE
NOTE!
✓ The firmware update process can also be followed by the product’s HMI.
NOTE!
✓ If a fault occurs during the firmware update process, the fault F0081 will be shown on the product’s
HMI, and the update will be aborted.
After completing the download process, a message in the Output window is displayed and a device reset occurs.
NOTE!
✓ After completing the step indicated in Figure 3.6 on page 3-5, it is recommended to check the
corresponding parameter (P0023) to verify that the firmware version has been updated correctly.
NOTE!
✓ The firmware update process will not be completed if the binary file is incompatible or corrupted.
