17 APPENDIX E - FIRMWARE UPGRADE PROCEDURE
Genius D leaves the manufacturer with the latest firmware installed just prior to shipment. Once
purchased, the firmware can be updated with the latest version available. The Firmware Upgrade
can be run in the Windows work environment. Supported operating systems include: Windows Xp
Sp3, Windows Vista e Windows 7 Ultimate 32/64 Bit. Ensure you have installed Microsoft .net 4 on
the operating system. Where this is not the case, visit the site
www.microsoft.com
for installation.
In order to upgrade the processor, please follow this procedure:
After initialisation of the device (firmware upgrade), all the settings and adjustments of the user
may be deleted and/or overwritten by the new settings of the manufacturer! Please save the
current configuration in a document external to the device before proceeding with the firmware
update.
During the firmware update, do not forget to install the new version of the software associated
with remote control of the PC. There is a direct correspondence between the firmware and
software versions. For example, version 3.0 of the Pc software requires firmware version 3.0
installed on the unit and vice versa. More precisely, the first two digits must match as far as
possible the sub-versions (identified by the third digit) that are not involved in the
firmware/software compatibility.
As a general rule, the
X. Y. Z
software version is performed with the
X. Y K firmware version.
17.1 PREPARATION OF THE UNIT FOR UPGRADE
To correctly run the upgrade of a Genius D device, a Serial COM RS232 type port must be used. If the port is native on
the motherboard of the pc from which you are working you do not need to set the port characteristics, while if you are
using USB-to-Serial adapters, in some cases you may need to set certain port data such as speed and stop bit. The
software upgrader works with port values:
38.400bps, 8-N-1
Below are these step-by-step instructions to proceed correctly to the upgrade:
a.
Close all applications open on the PC.
b.
Navigate to the Fw Upgrades folder.
c.
Click twice on the file associated with the upgrade to be performed.
d.
Launch the program _Upgrader_V2xx.EXE.
