The firmware upgrade will now commence, and the Editor screen will show a
series of dialogue boxes to identify each stage in the process. The download
should take approximately 30 minutes.
In the unlikely event that the Editor display shows an 'ERROR' dialogue box
before the download is complete, try repeating the entire procedure. Should
the error persist, contact your Voltech distributor.
At the end of the download, the tester will reset itself. You may then carry on
using your tester as normal, with the benefits offered by the new firmware
being available immediately.
If you were supplied with a 'BOOTATi.ABS' file, the Editor will now check the
boot code version already inside the AT. If the boot code requires upgrading,
the Editor will prompt you with a warning that communications must not be
disrupted during the 12 minutes that it takes to upgrade the boot code.
WARNING: You must NOT switch off the AT or interrupt the
!
communications during the 12 minutes required for this part of the
upgrade.
If the power is removed from the ATi or the communications disrupted in any
way during this process, the ATi may be rendered inoperable and require
service at a service center.
For optimum performance and reliability, always upgrade the boot code when
prompted. If there is a risk that power or communications may be disrupted,
you may choose not to upgrade the boot code at this time, but you should do
so at the earliest opportunity. The ATi will continue to function without new
boot code.
