GENERAL INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------------------------

You can update or save the BIOS a B&R Power Panel 300/400 with
this software.

----------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE PROCEDURE
----------------------------------------------------------------

1. Copy all files to a bootable disk.
(Alternatively, a bootable CompactFlash card or a bootable
USB stick can be used. Detailed information can be found in
the PP300/400 User Manual)

2. Insert the disk in a (USB) floppy drive connected to the Power Panel and re-boot the device.

3. A boot menu with following options is shown after booting:

1. Update BIOS (autoselect) => default after 5 sec

The BIOS will be updated automatically.

***********************************************
Write down your BIOS settings before upgrading!
***********************************************

After a BIOS update the BIOS uses automatically the CMOS
default settings. If you have changed settings in the BIOS
Setup you must change these settings again after update!

***************************
Do not abort a BIOS update!
***************************

Otherwise the Power Panel cannot be rebooted afterwards
and must be sent to B&R for repair. Retry the aborted
update process WITHOUT rebooting the Power Panel, for
example by directly calling batch file UPDBIOS.BAT.

2. Save BIOS (directory SAVED)

The BIOS will be saved automatically in the directory
SAVED.

***********************************************************
There must be about 256 kbytes free space left on the disk.
***********************************************************

3. Exit

Exit to the Shell (MS-DOS).

4. Select the desired action.

5. Remove disk and reboot device (after successful update only!).
