Horner XL4 Firmware Update

We will now look at changing firmware on our Horner APG XL4 controller. The firmware update will give users the newest version of the operating system which adds new benefits to the controller. The firmware update is also required when changing communications between CsCan and CANopen. CsCan is a peer-to-peer network by Horner Electric based upon the Can network. CANopen is a communication protocol industry standard used in the CAN network. Changing firmware will remove all programs and settings in the controller. Ensure that you have a backup of your information. Please refer to the release notes for the features that will be set with the firmware update. More information can be obtained at our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video. https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-firmware-update Previously we discussed the following on the Horner XL4: System Hardware. https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-system-hardware/ Installing the Software Cscape https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-installing-the-software-cscape Horner XL4 Cscape Software Setup https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-cscape-software-setup Horner XL4 Establishing Communication https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-establishing-communication Horner XL4 Numbering System and Addressing https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-numbering-system-and-addressing Horner XL4 User Interface https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-user-interface Horner XL4 Timers and Counters https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-timers-and-counters Compare and Move Instructions https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-compare-and-move-instructions Horner XL4 Math Instructions https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-math-instructions Horner XL4 Program Control Instructions https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-program-control-instructions Horner XL4 Rotate and Shift Register https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-rotate-and-shift-register Horner XL4 Recipe Instruction https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-recipe-instruction Horner XL4 Report Generator https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-report-generator Horner XL4 Modbus RTU Instructions https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-modbus-rtu-instructions Horner XL4 FTP File Transfer Protocol Server https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-ftp-file-transfer-protocol-server Horner XL4 HTTP Web Server http://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-http-web-server Horner XL4 Modbus TCP AdvancedHMI Communication https://accautomation.ca/horner-xl4-modbus-tcp-advancedhmi-communication This series on the Horner XL4 all-in-one controller (PLC) will go step by step through learning how to use this innovative unit. There are several reasons why we are using the Horner XL4 Controller. Here are just a few. - Investment is low for the hardware and the software is free - Standalone PLC with built-in I/O and HMI - Communication ability - Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485 - support for protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, etc. - Built-in data logging functions - Ability to expand the system with a variety of modules https://www.accautomation.ca
