Replacing Modules

Version 04

Service Manual SM300: 1147.1652.00

Instrument Part No SM300: 1147.1498.03

Note

For every instrument (FS300, SM300, AM300) there is one “overall“
*.out file containing all software/firmware packages needed for an
update of the instrument.

11.

Click

<Update>

. The download will be started and the following window

appears as long as the download is proceeding.

12.

Once the download is complete, the SM300 will reboot automatically.

Troubleshooting

If the SM300 is still in remote mode after restart it could be due to one of the
following:

The USB cable has not been removed from the instrument.

There could be a problem with the USB connection (backplane,
module) that is preventing the control PC from communicating with the
generator module.

A wrong software version has been installed, please check version of
the *.out file.

An error occurred during download and the software was not correctly
installed. In this case, please repeat steps 5 to 12.
