DSAM Firmware Upgrade Instructions

If you are using FDM-100, visit the FDM-100 Upgrade
page here.
To maximize upgrade reliability, please upgrade your
DSAM on networks that have reliable connections,
minimal network congestion, and no restricting firewalls. In
the case where you feel you may have such IP or RF
networks or have experienced upgrade failures, we
recommend that a direct laptop connection or Ethernet
connection be used.
Connect your DSAM to the charger to provide a consistent
power supply during the upgrade.
Synchronize each DSAM to be upgraded to the FDM-100
or Test Productivity Pack via the Ethernet port to verify
proper configuration and communications. Firmware
upgrades require the DSAM to be connected through the
Ethernet port.
Avoid upgrading more than 10 meters at a time per FDM/
TPP server. If your server is connected via a connection
less than 10 Mbps, for example to a cable modem with a
384k upstream, you should limit your DSAM upgrades/
synchronizations to 4 at a time.
Download these 2 necessary files. Save these files by
right clicking on them and Select "Save Target as..." or
"Save Link as..."
Example:
– Firmware file: v3_5.zip
– License file: v3_5.xml
Ensure that both the upgrade firmware .zip file and the
upgrade .xml file are in the same folder (directory) on the
FDM or TPP server.
Launch the FDM or TPP client and go to "manage meter
assets" page.
