DIGIVAL User Manual 50
13 Software Updates
When new tests or software updates become available, the DIGIVAL can be
updated by the Admin, using a USB memory stick supplied by Abbott at the
time of the software update release. If a middleware system that supports
instrument software updates is configured, the DIGIVAL can receive software
updates over the network without the need for a USB memory stick. The
DIGIVAL prompts the user to insert memory stick or to select the source (if
both are present).
To update the software, tap:
Home> Settings> Administration> Software Update
1. Insert the USB memory stick
into one of the USB ports on
the back of the DIGIVAL. The
DIGIVAL looks for an update
file.
OR
2. Use downloaded SW Update.
This feature allows for
instrument management
systems to push software
updates to the DIGIVAL. This
method may be used in place of
the USB stick software update
feature.
If both a USB memory stick
and downloaded SW Update are
present, the DIGIVAL prompts
the user to select a source for the
update.
When an update file is validated, Tap
OK to start the update process.
Caution:
Do not remove the USB memory stick during the software update.
