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 supplied 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) > Systeminfo > Softwareversion as to which firmware version is
installed on your test instrument (firmware version = Softwareversion).
Apart from a section for the initialization of files in the test instrument, the Firmware Update Tool software always includes the latest firmware version for transfer to the test instruments.
The present document describes all the steps necessary for performing a firmware update for the test instruments listed in
chapter 2.3.
The system requirements are listed in the following chapter.
