Installing Optional Extension Modules
The data collector uses the Extension Manager to install and uninstall extension
modules. These extension modules are licensed and ordered separately from the
basic entry-level product.
The installation Secure Digital (SD) cards that you receive work with any
Dynamix 2500 data collector. Once you have installed an extension module, the
card is locked so that it can be used only with that instrument.
You can uninstall extension modules, if required. When uninstalling an extension
module, you have the option to free up the license so you can install the extension
module on another instrument. This makes the extension module available to be
transferred between units.

IMPORTANT
One installation SD card is required for each instrument that needs to
be upgraded.
IMPORTANT
When ever you re-run the OS Loader software, you will re-load only the
main OS firmware. The OS loader will backup licence files and data, but
not the optional extension modules. Once you have updated the OS
firmware, install the latest version of your optional extension modules.
See the Dynamix 2500 Data Collector User Manual,
