Key Updater tool
The Key Updater tool is used to apply special features and corrections to
modules and systems of the laser.
To use the Key Updater tool follow Procedure 2 .
Procedure 2 Using the Key Updater tool
Note: Certain keys will generate a new locally generated key code. Locally gener-
ated keys are usually required during a support session and are emailed back to
the NKT Photonics support personnel.
Log downloader
If your laser requires support from NKT Photonics, our support engineers may
request that you send the log files collected by the laser. You can use the log
downloader tool to save the laser log files to your CONTROL PC.
NKTP CONTROL automatically downloads log files from the modules of any
connected devices. The log files are stored in a local database on the CONTROL
PC. However, certain NKTP modules, including the Koheras BOOSTIK LC main
board do not support automatic download of log files. For these modules. you
can use the
Log Downloader tool to put the device into dedicated log download
mode by enabling a collect log function.
Fast log vs. slow log
Both fast and slow log types collect the same data from the device. The difference
between the two logs is their polling resolution. A fast log polls for data at a far
shorter interval then a slow log which is intended for device analysis over the life of
the device. Since a fast log collects far more data over the same time, it appears to
collect logs at a slower rate than a slow log, but this is only due to the large amount of
data it collects in comparison.
Note: When the collect log function is enabled, it will temporarily disable automat-
ic log collection from all other devices. The CONTROL interface will turn grey
(gray), and communication with the laser and log collection with all other modules
