6.1.1 AUTOMATIC FIRMWARE UPGRADE

The automated firmware upgrade process is the preferred method to upgrade

your RAMCHECK LX. You must first register your RAMCHECK LX at

www.innoventions.com to obtain your password. The password will be e-

mailed to you instantly. Use the User Information page of the Software Setup

menu to enter your e-mail (userId) and password.

From the RAMCHECK LX menu, select Automatic Firmware Upgrade. It

first connects to INNOVENTIONS' FTP server and downloads the "rclxf.zip"

file to the RAMCHECK LX program directory. It then unzips the "rclxf.zip"

into a new "rclxf.bin" firmware file (after backing up any existing firmware

file with the same name to "rclxf.bak"). Finally, it activates the firmware

Downloader program and prompts you to upgrade your RAMCHECK LX.

Selecting SEND FIRMWARE will then begin your upgrade.

The following window appears when you activate the automatic upgrade:
