9 Populate the web site with the instrument user interface in your browser
10 Remove the USB stick from instrument.
To perform an update of the Resident part of the Firmware create a folder
X:\OFFGEL\RESIUP on the USB stick, provide the firmware file and follow
steps 6 - 11. An example for a typical Resident Firmware file name is:
res_B623_001.dlb. There is no way to check the resident firmware from the
web interface. Please use the Firmware Update Tool to confirm the success.
Main firmware is automatically downgraded when the USB stick is mounted
on startup and the directory X:\OFFGEL\UPDATE does not exist or is empty
and exactly one .dlb file for the Agilent 3100 OFFGEL Fractionator with a
firmware version older than the current version is present in the directory X:\
OFFGEL\DOWNDATE.
Resident firmware is automatically downgraded when the USB stick is
mounted on startup and the directory X:\OFFGEL\RESIUP does not exist or
is empty and exactly one .dlb file containing a resident firmware version older
than the current version is present in the directory X:\OFFGEL\RESIDOWN.
If the USB stick contains both, a folder for resident and a main system, the
device will first update (or downgrade) the resident system, then restart. After
the restart it will update (or downgrade) the main system and restart again.
Please delete the folders for update or downgrading the firmware if you wish
to leave the USB stick in the instrument. The presence of these folders
decreases the boot-up speed of the instrument at future starts.
