Review the Firmware Versions
After the connection is made, the device properties, and the installed
controller module is displayed.
Step 6.
Browse for the new firmware.
Click the corresponding cell in the
Browse New Firmware
column. A
dialog pops up, to confirm if you really want to modify the path. Now
you can browse for the new firmware file to upload. After opening the
new file, the new firmware field will contain the name of the firmware
file.
Step 7.
Upgrade firmware.
Click
Upgrade selected firmwares
button. A confirmation message
appears. After clicking the
Yes
button the selected controllers are being
reprogrammed, with the firmware you selected. If you select a file that
does not fit for the selected controller, you will get an information
message about which file is wrong. If you selected a controller to
upgrade, but you had not selected a file for it, then you will also get an
information message about which file is missing.
Quick Bootload
mode can be switched on or off any time. It makes the
bootloader software faster by only checking the checksum of the
controller. No data verification is done after writing if the checksum
was correct.
A progress bar will show the current state of the reprogramming. With
some controller type an erasing process will take place first, and then
the programming is done, so the progress bar runs up twice.
When the reprogramming is finished, a
Done!
message will appear in
the bottom left corner. The application closes the connection, and the
device restarts.
Step 8.
Done!
If the upgrade was successful, the following window pops up:
Now you can close the application, or you can select another device to
upgrade. After closing the bootloader application, switch the upgraded
devices off and then on. Now the distribution amplifier is ready to be
used with the new firmware!
