Two software packages are available for upgrading the 980:
1. Embedded firmware and gateware package for the 980 instrument. This is a Debian software package for
installation in the Linux-based instrument. (The file extension is .deb.) This package also includes the
embedded Graphical User Interface that will be installed for the Touch Screen User Interface. The 980
software package includes the firmware and gateware for all available modules.
2. Graphical User Interface for Windows PCs. This is the 980 Manager GUI that can be used to control all 980
instruments from a Windows PC.
