As we release new versions of executive software for your control, you
will have to install the new software. For the 9/230, 9/260 or 9/290 the
executive software updates come to you on 3 1/2-inch floppy disks. You
can install the executive software update on an:
Allen-Bradley T35, T45, T47, T50, or T60 with MS-DOS 3.3 or greater
installed
IBM XT/AT personal computer or 100% compatible
with MS-DOS 3.3 or greater installed
When you install the update, it uses an external drive for the update, and an
internal drive for a scratch directory. The update requires about 2 MB of
disk space. In this procedure, all variables that are entered by the control
during installation are in italic.
Important: Installing the executive firmware can delete all battery backed
up memory, AMP, and PAL. Make sure you have all necessary
information backed up before you re-install the executive software.
