4.4.2 Updating the current transmitter firmware
To update the current transmitter firmware the current transmitter needs to be set to
programming mode, then it can be programmed using a separate software (SAM-BA).
The entire process is described in a separate guide that can be found on Guideline
Geo’s website in the
Resource Center
.
With the Terrameter LS Toolbox the current transmitter can be set to programming
mode. Open the
Enable TX Update on Instrument
dialogue (Figure 18
)
by
right-
clicking on the tree node of the instrument and choosing
Enable TX Updating
from
the context menu. If everything is working as it should, the software will pre-load the
script file that is needed, and the next step is to press the
Execute
button as in Figure
18.
When the
Execute
button has been pressed the outcome of the installation process will
be echoed in the text box of the dialog. The entire process of setting the current
transmitter in programming mode can take up to 1 minute. When completed it will say
“Process completed” at the end of the log file if the script was performed successfully
(Figure 19).
