This concludes the software upgrade procedure using the SD card.
5. Configuration Import Using XML File
The following procedure guides you through the task of importing a XML file to
update the system configuration. The XML file will configure new features after the
upgrade.
Before uploading configuration update

The new software version includes important new features and enhancements that
must be configured, while also preserving the initial system configuration.
Before exercising the procedure in the next chapter, ensure that you choose the
correct XML to configure your power system.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
 The controller components are all connected to CAN 1 bus, and each one
of the CAN nodes has a unique address that is set by a DIP Switch
configuration.
 If your system is equipped with one or multiple Smartpack2 Basic

controller/s, both the CAN nodes and rectifiers are all communicating
through CAN1.
 If your system is equipped with one or multiple Smarpack2 Basic Industrial

Controller, the CAN nodes are all communicating through CAN1 only. The
rectifiers are all communicating through CAN2 only.
 Larger power systems might include multiple Smartpack2 Basic Industrial

Controllers and other CAN nodes. Make sure that the rectifier’s bays
disposition is sequential and always preceding the distributions bays.
 The XML file will target the specific component addresses and assumes
that the DIP Switches configuration is sequential. Rectifiers bays first,
then distribution bays.
 Import ONLY one of the XML files to update the system configuration.
XML files are located in the SD card under the folder named XML
Files/<your power system name>/Configuration Upgrade XML.
 Identify the correct XML file by the AC main input voltage and the number
of the rectifier’s bay that matches your system hardware, see Table for
more details.
 The Configuration Update XML files were recorded to update new
features in your system. It will not modify the existing configuration prior
to the upgrade.
 If the AC input voltage for your system does not match the AC voltage
that the XML indicates, the AC mains alarm levels need to be manually
configured.
 Importing a Factory Defaults with XML files is NOT part of the upgrade.
It will set the configuration of the system back to the factory defaults,
and will erase any change(s) to the configuration made after the
installation.
 Should you have any doubt about the appropriate XML file for your
system, contact Eltek Technical Support before applying the
configuration.
As an example, Table shows the list of XML files that correspond to larger
PowerPack systems. Make sure that you import the correct file as per the system
input voltage and the number of rectifier bays.
Table 3 – XML file and Power System relation.
