FLASHING NEW FIRMWARE
When the new firmware becomes available, the user can replace the inclinometer firmware in
the field using the unit embedded bootloader. The firmware file can be received from Axiomatic
on request.
To flash the new firmware, the user should activate the embedded bootloader. To do so, start
the EA and, in the
Bootloader Information
group screen, click on the
Force Bootloader to Load
on Reset
parameter. The following dialog will appear, see Figure 30.
Figure 30. Bootloader Activation. First Step
The EA will prompt the user to change the
Force Bootloader to Load on Reset
parameter flag
to
“Yes”. This will automatically activate the bootloader on the next ECU reset. After accepting
the change, the next screen will ask the user if the reset is actually required, see Figure 31.
Select
“Yes”.
After automatic reset, instead of 20 Thermocouple, 2 RTD, 4 Inputs, 6 Relays Dual CAN
Controller
, Ethernet
, the user will see
J1939 Bootloader
ECU in the
J1939 CAN Network
top-
level group in the EA. This means that the bootloader is activated and ready to accept the new
firmware.
