Page 13: Updating The Firmware
6.9.Updating the firmware 3. After a warning device motors will be shut down and update will start: If your device firmware version doesn’t match to software’s firmware version while connecting to device via BDS software you’ll be asked to update your device. If update request pops-up, but you want to keep current firmware and use BDS software, you must use software compatible with that firmware version. - Page 14 6. You may get a warning sign saying that you must set default coefficients in case there are some error with device settings: " 7. In order to rewrite default coefficients go to Settings -> choose wavelength -> Press “Set” -> Press “Default coeff.” ...
