Operating System Update
The D-LOGG data converter has the same operating system (*.frm) as the BL232 Bootload-
er, which can be downloaded from the homepage at
http://www.ta.co.at .
CAUTION : Newer operating systems are not necessarily compatible with the software al-
ready present on the PC. The homepage provides information on this. The software on the
PC should always be brought up to date before an operating system update.
It is advisable to read out any logged data before updating the operating system.
All program elements required for the system update are stored in a protected storage area
(boot sector) that cannot be overwritten by the data converter. This means that interrupting
the operating system transfer should not cause any problems. However, the device will not
operate correctly until the operating system is fully loaded. In general, an update should only
be performed when the newer operating system contains changes that are required (Never
change a running system!). An operating system update always represents a certain small
risk.
