Vacuum Gauge Controller AGC-100
83
If your AGC-100 firmware needs updating, e.g. for implementing a new
gauge type, please contact your nearest Agilent Technologies service
center.
A firmware update is possible
•
via a USB memory stick (type A connector on the front of the unit), or
•
with the USB Update Tool via the USB type B connector on the rear of the unit.
Most of the settings you may have made in the Parameter mode will not be af-
fected by a firmware update. However, we recommend that you save the parame-
ters before an update (

Not all USB memory sticks are automatically recognized by the
AGC-100, as they (particularly cheaper brands) do not always conform
to USB standard specifications. Try a different memory stick before con-
tacting your nearest Agilent Technologies service center.
Download two files with the ending ".S19" and ".CNF" from our website
"www.agilent.com" to a USB memory stick.
Switch off the unit.
Plug in the memory stick and then turn on the unit.
