Gocator 2000 Family

Updating Firmware

LMI recommends routinely updating firmware to ensure that Gocator sensors always have the latest

features and fixes.

To update firmware:

Click on the Help Link.

*Ensure that the host PC is connected to the

Internet.

HELP

Determine if an update is required.

The Help Panel will check the LMI website to

determine if the sensor’s firmware is up to date.

Download the latest firmware.

If sensor firmware is not up to date, click the

Firmware Link to visit the LMI website and then

download the latest firmware.

To update firmware using a PC other than the host PC:

If the client computer is not connected to the Internet, firmware can be downloaded and transferred to

the computer hosting the Gocator using another computer by visiting the downloads area of the LMI

Technologies website:

http://www.lmi3D.com/support/downloads

Go to Connection Page > Maintenance.

Click the Upgrade Firmware... Button.

Provide the location of the firmware file.

Wait for the upgrade to complete.

After the firmware upgrade is complete, the

sensor will self-reset.
If a dual-sensor system has been assigned, it

will be automatically upgraded and reset along

with the Main sensor.
