Igor Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 My question about UniStream controllers without HMI. Is it possible to update software from SD card or USB flash without a command from computer utilities? Another words, can service specialist update software with only USB flash or sd-card locally?

Igor Posted October 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 Thank You for answer, but I'm afraid You understood me wrongly. I mean a software loading like PLC booting with image on SD card or USB flash without using a computer as an initiator of software update. I mean this feature must be useful for screenless controllers working locally. I suspect I want too much.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isakovic Posted October 8, 2019 Report Share Posted October 8, 2019 If you mean firmware update, look Help -> Firmware, as Alex said. If you mean transfering new project to PLC this is also possible with USB stick, look Help -> Downloading/Uploading a Project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinehartrr Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Since the PLC does not have a screen it is a little bit hard to get to uni Apps. Forgive me if I am missing something but I have not been able to find a default IP address that the headless PLC is configured with so I can VNC into it to use the Uni apps? any help on the IP? I did get the firmware updated without uni apps, but it would be nice to have them from the start with a default config... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanT Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Hi; UniLogic 1.26.90 and later Method 1 : Having UniLogic on a local computer and a USB DOK PLC UniLogic Management Remote Update USB Link to the PLC ( Ethernet if you know the IP of the PLC) I used my DOK and started it remotely. You can also select a SD Card BE SURE the USB DOK is > 4 GB !! Method 2 : Setting up a USB Action File on a DOK for a NON LOCAL UPGRADE - firmware or project Help - Search Actions - UniStreamPLC(PLC without Built-in HMI Panel) There is a checkbox for Firmware Upgrade and Project Upgrade Recommend testing these with a handy UniStream PLC before deployment.
