If a Firmware version with a higher number is available on the website, proceed as follows:

1. Download the firmware file vm2x.hex from the above named internet address.
2. Also download the program “Firmware Updater” from the above named internet address and install it on your PC.
3. Start the “Firmware Updater”, then select the instrument type “PCE-VM2x” and the virtual COM port assigned by the PC. If you are not sure which of the

available COM ports is correct, you can check in the Windows system control manager located within the instrument manager.

4. Click on “Load” in the “Firmware Updater” and enter the path to the file where the downloaded firmware file pce-vm2x.hex is located.

5. Connect the PCE-VM 25 to the PC using the USB cable.
6. Within the PCE-VM 25 “Instrument Settings” select the option “Update Firmware” and confirm the warning and subsequent hint messages by pressing OK.

By carrying out this step the old firmware is deleted. The PCE-VM 25 will then indicate that it awaits new firmware data from the USB port (Figure 49).

7. Click on “Send” in the “Firmware Updater”. Transfer of the Firmware data has now begun. The transfer progress is displayed as a time bar on the PC ans
also on the PCE-VM 25. When the update is finished the PCE-VM 25 will start up and the “Firmware Updater” will close. Please do not interrupt the update
process. Following transfer failures the update can be restarted at point 3.
