Update RobotWare to a newer version

Hi everyone,

I’ve written a RAPID program that creates an automated weekly backup on my ABB robot and successfully stores it in the designated backup folder. The program runs smoothly—but only on firmware version 05.14.XX.XX or newer. Robots with older versions, like 05.12.XX.XX, currently can’t execute this function since they lack the ability to trigger a backup via digital input, a feature only available in the newer versions.

My question to you all: Does anyone know if it’s possible to upgrade my robots from version 05.12.XX.XX to at least version 05.14.XX.XX so the program can run on those devices as well? If anyone has experience with this, I’d really appreciate any insights on the necessary steps and requirements for such an upgrade!

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hallo, I've found a DVD containing RW5.14.03 and in the realease notes is said, that it is possible to upgrade to that version from RW5.09 on. The give a document "Migration Guide RW 5.05 – RW 5.06 – RW 5.08 – RW
    5.09 – RW 5.10” (RP5.10 - 053) – RW5.14 (RP5.14-043)" but I cannot find this anywhere (DVD or online library)
