1.3 Software Revision
Product Developers should read this document in conjunction with the “Software Release Notes” relevant
to the revision of the software that is loaded into their 9602 SBD Transceiver.
Product Developers should take into account in their software design that it is possible that a transceiver
may have an earlier software release and may therefore have different capabilities to those listed in this
document. Product Developers are advised to ensure that production procedures for finished goods
confirm that the software used in the Product Developer application is designed for the Software Release
loaded in the 9602 SBD Transceiver. This can be read out of the module using the AT command
interface. A software upgrade utility is provided with each SW release. The utility runs on a Windows
compatible OS and will automatically upgrade the modem with the latest version.
