With the "Firmware Update" program and a PC you can update the firmware of
an IDS sensor to the newest version.
You can find available firmware update files for your IDS sensor on the Internet.

and the MultiLab 4010-1W to a PC.

the driver for the USB interface (on the enclosed CD-ROM)
the USB cable (included in the scope of delivery of the MultiLab 4010-1W).
After switching the meter off and on you can check whether the sensor has
taken over the new software version (see Y
