13. A progress bar will appear. The update process will normally take one to
two minutes.
14. Once the update has finished, operation will return to normal.

15. Repeat the above process with all the nodes in the network.
The firmware update is now complete.
E.2 FIRMWARE TROUBLESHOOTING
□
Perform updates using the
adapter. Other adapters and native serial ports have been unreliable.
□
Make sure the batteries are fresh.
E.3 CHANGE SUMMARY FOR FIRMWARE VERSIONS
Version
(Most recent at top)
■ Revised bootstrap loader (BSL) provides firmware updates via external USB. Internal "CHANNEL"
DIP switches don't need to be changed when using new software utility to upload new firmware
images.
■ Make USB the default port.
(788) 200410
■ Automatically configure and use Digi International 900SX and 868SX radios.
■ Nodes fill device table to provide information for AgentMobile handheld interaction.
■ Initialize GPIO to minimize S-8800-2 sleep current.
■ Recognize models 6150F, 6150G, etc., as MEMS.
■ Corrected Leap Day bug that prevented nodes from relaying data to sensemetrics THREADs
(787) 200311
after joining.
■ Prevent concurrent flash writes or erasures to protect flash integrity.
■ Verify newly-written flash metadata matches RAM client. Rewrite metadata if difference
detected.
(786) 191023
■ Load prior record into RAM during boot if newer metadata in flash is corrupted.
■ Stop sampling supervisor every minute.
■ Update supervisor signal strength regularly.
■ Sets GeoNet to "airplane mode", silencing radio for logger-only operation.
(784) 190807
■ Corrected fault that prevented sensemetrics threads from reading MUX boards.
(783) 190502
■ Fixes intermittent addressable discovery of drop 1.
(782) 190311
■ USB lock up corrected.
■ Log data from Addressable Temperature Sensors (3810A) and Addressable Vibrating Wire
Readers (8020-30).
■ Simplified keypad operation.
(779) 190125
■ Corrected defects that impeded prompt radio network connections.
■ Augmented power control and battery monitoring.
■ Single-Channel Node: VW is never disabled.
■ MUX: VW channel disabled after 10 failed reads.
181025 through 180228
■ MEMS: MEMS drops disabled after 10 failed reads.
■ Single-Channel Node: VW is never disabled.
180213 through 170818
■ MUX: VW channel disabled after 10 failed reads.
■ Single-Channel Node: VW is disabled after 5 failed reads.
Prior to 170818
■ MUX: VW is disabled after 5 failed reads.
