10. FA2100CVR SOFTWARE UPLOAD PROCEDURE
Computer Interface Communications Cable/2 (CICC/2) is shown in Figure 177. In the
event that the original Acquisition Processor (AP) PWA, p/n: 205E1591−00 or
205E1931−00, is required to be replaced in the FA2100CVR, it will be replaced with the
Acquisition Processor PWA, p/n 205E2502−11, or −14 in the case of the 2100−1025−( ),
and the software that is required to be loaded onto this PWA. To load the software, use
the FA2100 Software Upload cable assembly, p/n: 17TES0058 and the FA2100 Software
Upload Utility software. The Upload Utility software contains a CICCLDR executable file
and a CICCIFC executable file. The CICCLDR and CICCIFC executable files are found
on the FA2100 Utility Bundle CD p/n 883E1894−01.
NOTE: The CICC/3 with ethernet (P/N 17TES0075) cannot be used to
upload FA2100CVR software.
The Software Upload cable assembly is connected between the front panel GSE connec-
tor of the FA2100 and the CICC/2 Cable assembly, which includes the Computer Interface
Communications Cable/2 (p/n: 17TES0070) and the FA2100 to CICC/2 cable (p/n:
17TES0072).
The software upload procedure is also necessary when replacing a faulty Turbo Acquisi-
tion Processor PWA, p/n: 205E2502−10/−11 with a known good AP board from the facto-
ry, since the factory spare PWA's are shipped without the recorder firmware preloaded.
The specific recorder software for either the 2100-1010-( ) 2100-1020-( ) or the
2100−1025−( ) CVRs will be loaded from the FA2100CVR Software Distribution CD.
Once installed, a Windows-98/XP short-cut icon linking to the CICCLDR.exe may be
placed on the desktop. To upload the recorder software perform the following procedure:
NOTE: After installing CICC loader and/or interface on Windows 7, you
must set the properties of CiccLDR.exe and/or the Ciccldr.exe to
run in compatibility mode of "Windows 98/Windows Me."
A. Installing Software Upload Utility and CICC Interface Programs
