4.3.5 Servicewarnings
•Rapid flash wear warning
“The unit internal disk lifetime is rapidly decreasing. Please consult the
documentation how to reduce wear, or how to minimize it.”
Occurs when the user’s program is quickly decreasing the flash memory’s wear.
Consultthe“X2andiXDeveloper2.40–Flashmemorybestpractice”guide
found under Resources for the unit’s product page on Beijer Electronics’
webpage.
•Flash lifetime warning
“The unit should be scheduled for preemptive maintenance service. The internal
disk memory is soon reaching its expected lifetime.”
This warning appears when that the unit’s flash memory is reaching its
expected lifetime. The only solution is to replace the entire unit.
•Battery warning
“The unit internal battery is due and needs to be replaced.”
Indicates the Real Time Clock (RTC) battery is depleted. This battery is used
by the system to power the internal clock and maintain a few stored settings.
The solution is to replace the 3V battery (CR 2032) with an equivalent one.
Warning: Opening the unit will void the warranty!
•License warning
“Operating system license doesn’t match device type.
Occurs when the runtime version license running on the unit for Windows
Embedded Compact 2013 is incorrect. Contact support for solution.

The operator panel comes pre-loaded on delivery with an image.
iX Runtime can be updated via ethernet using a PC.
The Image Loader utility is used to create Image Loader SD cards and USB-sticks
or to transfer a panel image to an operator panel over ethernet.

5.1.1 Preferredway
Using a USB flash drive or SD card to update the image in an operator panel is the
preferred method of updating the panel. This makes it possible to upgrade the
panel image without the use of a PC.

5.1.2 Image+newiXDeveloperproject
It is possible to upgrade both the panel image and the iX Developer project on an
operator panel. This is done in two steps:
1. Create a panel image USB flash drive or SD card using the Image Loader
utility.
2. Export the iX Developer project from within iX Developer, to that same USB
flash drive or SD card.
5.2 Updatingthepanelimageover
