UPDATING APPLICATION CODE

The 317 contains Bootloader ﬁrmware resident in Non-volatile memory which allows the main application

ﬁrmware to be updated over the RS422 port. The Bootloader ﬁrmware is completely independent from the main

application so it is always possible to re-load code.

• Conﬁgure a terminal communications port to a baud rate of 115200, No Parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit. AGD

recommends using RealTerm as this allows delays to be inserted after End of Line transmissions.

• Power on the AGD 317 unit with the comms cable attached to the PC. The Bootloader version information is

displayed and a countdown is started to boot the main application.

Before the countdown reaches zero type the command:

*ERASEFLASH!

The response is:

#ERASEFLASH!OK
