To Upgrade the Waveform Monitor Software
To Upgrade the Waveform Monitor Software
System Upgrade (CONFIG> Utilities > System Upgrade) is used to upgrade the system software of the waveform monitor.
The upgrade is performed across an Ethernet network using a PC to transfer the new software to the waveform monitor.
PC System Requirements
The data-transfer utility for upgrading the waveform monitor runs on these PC systems: Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0,
Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
The data-transfer utility also requires Winsock 2.0, an Ethernet interface, and 128 MB of free disk space be present on the
PC system.
Before You Begin
Read the entire procedure before starting the upgrade. The time required to complete the upgrade is about 25 minutes.
CAUTION.
Once the instrument has started to erase internal
fl
ash, DO NOT remove power from the instrument. If you
do so, the instrument
fl
ash will be corrupted. The instrument will have to be sent to a Tektronix factory service center to
have the system software restored.
NOTE.
If power to the instrument is lost before it begins erasing the internal
fl
ash, you can restart the software upgrade
after the instrument reboots.
