Updating the Firmware
The AN-X3 operating software consists of the maintenance firmware and the runtime firmware.
The maintenance firmware runs at startup. It performs diagnostics, updates any firmware that
has been downloaded, and starts the runtime firmware.
The firmware files are supplied in files that begin with AN-X3 and have extension
qtf
. They are
updated using the web interface. Run the command
Administration/Update AN-X Firmware
and
select the file you wish to download.
WARNING!
Do not download firmware to the AN-X while applications that use the
AN-X are running.
The web page displays the download progress at the bottom left of the page.
You must restart the AN-X3 to run the firmware that you downloaded.
WARNING!
It is essential that you do not disrupt power while downloading
firmware, especially maintenance firmware, to the AN-X3 or while the
AN-X3 is restarting following a firmware download.
Interrupting power at some points in the update process could render the
AN-X inoperative and it would have to be returned to the factory for
reinitialization.
The web interface displays the version of the firmware the AN-X3 is running on the home page
and on the tab at the top of the page.
You can also update the firmware by copying qtf files to the microSD card from a computer. If
you do, make sure that there is only one version of each qtf file on the microSD card, the one you
want AN-X to use.
