You use the Commissioning Wizard to
upgrade the software in a controller. This means either an update
upgrade from one software build to the next version of that build,
or a full minor release upgrade from one build to another build.
You have upgraded your Supervisor. You purchased
a license upgrade in preparation for this upgrade. You are working
in Workbench.
- Make a connection to the controller.
- To launch, right-click on that Platform node and click Commissioning Wizard.
The
Commissioning view opens.

- Since this is a controller upgrade, in the wizard’s opening
selection of steps, deselect most items that were previously run at
the controller’s initial commissioning, for example to set enabled
runtime profiles, set date and time, configure TCP/IP settings, and
so on.
Request or install software licenses defaults
to being selected.
If the installation of a station requires commissioning the
controller, select Install station from the local computer.
Install/upgrade modules defaults to being
selected.
Install/upgrade core software from distribution files must be selected.
- To continue, click Next.
The wizard automatically finds and selects all core distributions
needed for the controller. Then, in the pre-selected Install/Upgrade
modules step, the wizard provides the option to also upgrade
all out-of-date software modules.
- At the Install/Upgrade modules step select
the option to upgrade all out-of-date software modules.
A final summary step allows you to review the upgrade
before the wizard executes and performs its operations. For further
details, refer to the JACE Niagara 4 Install and Startup Guide
