1.
Use the AutoCONFIG software to connect to the flow computer
whose firmware you want to upgrade.
2.
From the main menu, go to System > Flash RTU.
3.
Browse to the location where you stored the S19 file, and double-click
the file.
4.
The software will ask if you want to perform the task, as all data will be
erased. Click Yes.
5.
The flow computer will display the status of the firmware upgrade. If
communication is not established or is lost during the flashing process,
follow these steps to reestablish communications with the unit.
a.
Use the AutoCONFIG software to warm boot the RTU (Tools >
Warm Restart). If the flow computer finds that the application
image is invalid, “AutoPilot Pro B-2” should be displayed on the
LCD.
b.
An alternate method of warm booting the flow computer is to set a
jumper on J39 pins 5 and 6 on the main board. The flow computer
will display “AutoPilot Pro B-5” on the LCD, indicating that the
bootloader has control.
c.
Try to connect to the flow computer. The software will attempt to
establish communication again and fail because the flow computer
is already in the bootloader. These communication timeouts are
normal.
d.
Once the flow computer fails communications and a blank screen is
presented, select File > Flash RTU.
e.
At the prompt, select the new flash file. The flow computer will fail
several more times (again because the flow computer is already in
the bootloader) and then will resume reflashing the flow computer
normally.
6.
Upon completion, the flow computer will display that the download is
complete, and the software will inform you that the download has been
successful. Click OK. If you installed a jumper on J39 pins 5 and 6,
remove it now.
