for instructions on viewing the error log.
The error log is cleared each time the analyzer is powered off.
Generally, an entry in the error log is created whenever an error message is displayed.
EXAMPLE: Attempting to set the frequency to a value of "." (a decimal point), will generate an entry in
the error log.
Firmware Upgrades
Firmware upgrades are available on the Internet. Refer to instructions in the "Update FieldFox
Firmware" section of the FieldFox Analyzer User's Guide (Part Number N9927-90001) for details.
See

for instructions on viewing the current firmware revision.
The following information will be included in the display.
• Firmware Release = FieldFox application firmware revision
• FPGA Rev = code revision for FPGA
• SBM Boot Rev = revision of boot code for System Microcontroller
• SBM Main Rev = revision of main code for System Microcontoller
A firmware upgrade includes three sections:
• the FieldFox application firmware and the Windows CE operation system on the A6 SOM board.
• the firmware in the System Monitor Microcontroller on the A5 System board.
