The present instruction manual describes the

Firmware Update Tool as from version 1.8.3.

1 Information on the Application

The range of functions of our test instruments is regularly

checked, extended and improved.

Following each new firmware version which is issued and sup-

plied by GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH, we strongly recommed

downloading a new Firmware Update Tool from our website and

installing it on your PC so that you can transfer the new firmware

to your test instrument.

By setting the rotary switch of the your test instrument to position

SETUP, you can check via parameter query Setup (3/3) > Sys-

teminfo > Softwareversion as to which firmware version is

installed on your test instrument (firmware version = Softwarever-

sion).

Apart from a section for the initialization of files in the test instru-

ment, the Firmware Update Tool software always includes the lat-

est firmware version for transfer to the test instruments.

The present document describes all the steps necessary for per-

forming a firmware update for the test instruments listed in

chapter 2.3.

The system requirements are listed in the following chapter.

The installation of the Firmware Update Tool as well as the update

procedure are explained in chapter 3.

Attention!

Prior to performing a firmware update, we strongly rec-

ommend that you save the structures you have created

as well as the stored measuring data as they might be

deleted in the process, see chapter 5.4.4 „Backing Up

and Restoring the Database“ of the operating instruc-

tions for the test instrument.

Note

The calibration data are not being changed during the

update, therefore recalibration is not necessary.
