Loading New Firmware 

 

A new firmware version can be loaded to correct issues that are reported in the firmware 
release notes.  The firmware for the Satlook HD is identified as “smHD60-EU.hex” with 
the number “60” being the version number.  Newer firmware designed to be common 
with the Satlook G2 is identified as smG2HD106-EU.hex   This firmware can be used on 
either the G2 or the HD.  Do not load any firmware without these types of name, it will 
be for a different instrument and will not work on the Satlook G2 or HD.  Use the Version 
screen in the Setup Menu to determine the current software version.   
 
In order to load firmware, you must have a PC which supports an RS232 connection.  The 
firmware loading must be performed with the external charger connected.  The RS232 
cable to be used is supplied as part of the kit with the Satlook G2 /  HD.  Some laptops do 
not have an RS232 connection, but a USB to RS232 adapter can be purchased at low cost.  
Connect the Rs232 cable from the computer to the instrument.  Run the firmware 
download file “FDL.exe”. 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Select the RS232 port on the computer.  Normally, the port is COM1 but some USB to 
RS232 will use some other port.  If desirable, this USB to RS232 conversion device can be 
made to always use COM1 by clicking Control Panel / Device Manager / Ports and in the 
Advanced settings for the adapter set to COM1. 
Select “Send Firmware” and the display with be “Searching”.  Connect the Satlook G2 / 
HD to the external charger and the display will change to “Found”.  To verify this, check 
the Blue LEDs to see if they are not changing.  If they are in cycling pattern displaying the 
“charging pattern” then the process must be restarted.  An alternative method of starting 
the firmware loading process is to have the Satlook G2 / HD connected to the external 
charger and charging when starting the firmware load.  When the “Searching” message is 
displayed, momentarily press the Power On button for less than a second.   It is only 
during power up under external charge that the unit will check for an RS232 connection 
for firmware loading.  Now choose the firmware file.  Normally, the firmware will be in 
the same direction as “FDL.exe” but if not, you can navigate to the correct directory and 
select the firmware file.  Once the file is selected, the firmware loading will take about 10 
minutes and then the Firmware Downloader program will display “Download Complete” 
and the Satlook G2 / HD will revert to the “charging pattern” shown by the blue LEDs in a 
cycling pattern.
