Sensor options:
Program Firmware:
The sensor is Flash-programmable. This
means that the firmware can be
transferred to the processors by a
PC. Changing EPROMs and thus
opening the device is not required.
When the firmware is changed, for ex-
ample during a functional upgrade or
with special software, the firmware is
loaded to the DMD-4 via this dialog
box.
The sensor is equipped with 2 flash
memories:
Main
and
Dome
.
By clicking the corresponding button, the
Windows “Open File” dialog box is
opened and you can select the file (*.bin)
to be programmed. Subsequently, the
transfer to the sensor is done and a per-
cent display indicates the progress of the
process.
After successful transfer, the message “ Firmware programmed” is displayed on the
right hand of the button.
In case of errors during data transmission the status line at the bottom displays cor-
responding error messages.
Read Firmwareversion:
The actual firmware versions and the date of each last programming action are dis-
played. By pressing the „version‟ button the current data of the DMD-4 are displayed.
An overview of the current releases is shown on Appendix (page 34).
Date / Time:
By clicking the button „Send Date /Time‟ date and time are transferred separately in
order to synchronize the internal clock of the DMD-4 with the system clock of the PC.
You can double check the actual time setting by clicking on
‚Check
Date/
Time‘
.
