It is necessary to specify the communication port on the PC the controller is connected to. In the
image
COM5
has been selected as the communication port. The baud rate is fixed at the maximum
speed of 460,800 bits per second as indicated in the main window.
Inside the controller there are two programmable components, a MCU (Micro Controller Unit) and a
FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), that must be updated at the same time. Failure to comply
with this requirement can lead to controller malfunction. The two small buttons at the window right
side are used to locate the relevant programming files in the PC file system.
To update the FPGA firmware it is necessary to specify a couple of files, named the FPGA Algo file
and the FPGA Data file. After pressing the
Load FPGA files
dialog used to locate the FPGA Algo firmware file
will be displayed, asking to specify the FPGA Algo
file.
