Upgrade Firmware Without A Pc - Honeywell AutoRAE 2 User Manual

Upgrade firmware without a PC

Firmware upgrades for the instruments can be done without connecting an AutoRAE 2
Controller/Cradle to a PC. However, this first requires connecting them to a PC for an initial
upgrade (the upgraded firmware is loaded into the monitor and is saved in the AutoRAE 2
Controller's SD card). Subsequent upgrades using the same firmware can then be performed
without a connection between the AutoRAE 2 and a PC.
1. Follow the instructions in the previous section to upgrade the firmware in one monitor.
2. After shutting down Safety Suite Device Configurator (SSDC) and disconnecting the
AutoRAE 2 Controller, make sure the AutoRAE 2 is turned on.
3. Follow the instructions in Section 3 to put a monitor that needs its firmware upgraded into
the cradle.
4. In a few seconds, the AutoRAE 2 will check to see if the firmware in the monitor is up to
date. If it needs to be upgraded, the display will show "New instrument firmware available.
Proceed to upgrade?"
5. You can press [Y/+] to start the upgrade immediately, or if you do not press any buttons, a
countdown will occur and the monitor will have its firmware upgraded automatically.
Note: If you want to decline the upgrade, press [N/-] to "Skip," and the upgrade will not be
performed.
Note: If more than one cradle is connected to theAutoRAE 2 Controller, then multiple
monitors' firmware can be upgraded at the same time.
