Boot Mode Programming
From time to time the software in the intelliPuff may be updated to incorporate
the latest version based on Keeler’s continued research and development.
This process should not be undertaken unless instructed by Keeler. New
software will be issued and instructions on loading it to the main PC will be
given at that time.
The Pulsair 5000 intelliPuff can be programmed through its RS232 port. Both
the Hand unit and the base unit PCB (in this order) can be programmed this
way. Although the PCB’s come programmed from the manufacturer at the
testing stage, the boards are also programmed after calibration in order that
the latest code (current modification state) is applied.
The procedure to conduct boot mode programming follows a similar pattern to
the calibration in that the user is always prompted to do certain tasks to
facilitate this. The following series of forms guide the user in this task.
Initially when the bootmode program is fired, the form below is displayed with
the available serial port for programming.
The user then presses Program button to start programming the hand unit
PCB. The program instructs the user to set the dip switches on the back of the
tonometer to ON position prior to proceeding to the next stage as shown in the
form below.
