Additional Information
6.1
Advanced Study Options
Selecting “Show Advanced Settings” opens the Advanced
Settings section of the window. Here, the map and
blanking interval for each cannel can be changed.
Changing these values can seriously affect your data
collecting so only make changes under direction of
VEMCO.
The Statistics Logging Period, how often the statistics are stored in memory, can be changed from the default
of one day to up to 14 days (integer values only).
The option to password-protect the receiver is another advanced setting feature. Using the password protect
feature requires additional communication time between the receiver and the VUE software so most users do
not use this feature. If it is selected, the password must be entered before the study is initialized and again
each time the settings on the receiver are changed or the data is offloaded.

Update VR4-UWM firmware
While communication is established between the VR4-UWM and the VUE software, click the

the firmware file received from VEMCO to begin the firmware update.

Update map
Occasionally, VEMCO releases a new coded map. Updating the map in the VR4-UWM is as simple as
starting a new study with the new map selected. Follow the basic steps on the following page to start a study
with the new map. More details on how to initialize the receiver is found in section 3.2.1.
