specify. You can rename the file but leave the file extension as .bin for easy

XML MENU
The XML menu from the Web Interface provides a RSS feed function for status
reporting, several XML outputs to retrieve the current status of the
AquaController Apex probes and outlets as well as the history of the measured
probe values. These functions have been made available for advanced users and
programmers.
UPDATING FIRMWARE
The AquaController Apex system includes the ability to update the software that
runs the controller and modules, otherwise known as firmware. The process of
updating the firmware is also known as flashing which is a term derived from the
fact that the firmware is stored in “flash” memory on the modules. The ability to
update the firmware allows problems that were discovered after shipment to be
fixed as well as add new features for years to come. The firmware is updated on
the Apex Base module through the same network connection you use to access
the Web Interface. When the Apex Base Module is updated, new versions of the
firmware for supported Apex Modules is copied to the Base Module as well. Using
commands from the Web Interface of the Apex Display, you can easily update the
Apex Module firmware through the AquaBus. This means you don’t have to tear
your system apart to perform an update. The Apex Flash Utility is used to update
the firmware on the Base Module and must be run from a typical Microsoft
Windows computer. Follow the directions in the following section to prepare your
computer to run the Apex Flash Utility.
