The firmware of the ATi controls how tests are carried out, which tests are
available and how the interfaces (including the front panel) function. New
versions of the firmware are made available periodically, and electronic copies
are available free of charge. To maximize the performance and longevity of
your ATi, you should install these upgrades as they become available.
Contact your local supplier or see the Voltech website at www.voltech.com for
details.
Upgrade firmware is distributed in a file with the extension '.ABS'. Upgrade
firmware is available at the Voltech website or from your supplier and can be
downloaded into any ATi.
If you have purchased new tests, you will be supplied with a file called
ATIxxxx.ABS that contains the tests you have requested as well as the latest
version of firmware. An ATIxxxx.ABS file can only be used with the serial
number (xxxx) of the tester that it is registered to. Save the file to a local or
network directory (normally):
C:\Program Files\Voltech Instruments\Voltech AT Editor\
You may also be supplied with a file called 'BOOTATi.ABS'. You must save
this file in the same directory. To upgrade, locate the '.ABS' file and double-
click on it. Then select:
