Update Information for A.05.15 Firmware
Using the Instant Pilot
Downgrade to Revision A.05.15
In those cases where a Instant Pilot has to be downgraded from B.xx.xx to
A.05.15 to allow the operation with A.05.09/12 firmware installed on Agilent
1100/1200 series modules, follow the procedure below.
1
Copy the firmware file G4208A_A515.dlb to an USB Flash Drive (the A.05.15
has only main firmware, the resident of B.xx.xx resides in the memory).
2
Insert the USB Flash Drive into the Instant Pilot.
3
Start the firmware update.
Upgrade to Revision B.xx.xx
When the Instant Pilot needs to be upgraded to a B.xx.xx firmware to be
compatible with Agilent 1100/1200 series modules working on A.06.xx, follow
the procedure below.
1
Copy the latest firmware files 4208A_Bxxx_yyy.dlb and
res_4208A_Bxxx_yyy.dlb to an USB Flash Drive (the original resident of B.xx.xx
in the memory will be overwritten).
2
Insert the USB Flash Drive into the Instant Pilot.
3
Start the firmware update.
NOTE
Do not downgrade to firmware revsions A.05.13/14. They are not compatible
with G4208A Instant Pilots with serial MY.
NOTE
Before you downgrade to revision A.05.15, upgrade the Instant Pilot to the latest
B.xx.xx firmware revision. This will assure that the later upgrade from A.05.15 to
B.xx.xx works smoothly.
