11. vERSION DISpLAY
After powering up the MICROBEAST, it performs a brief initialization phase. A quick LED test turns all menu
LEDs on simultaneously, and the Status-LED cycles through all colors. Then for about 3 seconds, the Status-
LED turns red and the rst two digits (X and Y) of the internal rmware version are displayed. Then, in the
remaining time a running light of the LEDs A - G signals that the sensors are being calibrated and the LEDs
H - N do indicate the initialization of the receiver signals.
During the initialization phase (i.e. when viewing the rmware version or later) push briey the button and
you can display the third digit (Z) of the rmware version while the Status-LED ashes purple. Press the
button briey again, and the color of the Status-LED changes to ashing blue while displaying the data
version (X.Y). If you press the button third time, the Status-LED goes o and the hardware version (X.Y) of
your MICROBEAST is displayed. Press the button once again to leave the version display and proceed with
initialization.
Representation of values:
The representation of all values using the menu LEDs is in binary. A lighting menu LED stands for a 1, an o
LED for 0. The least signicant bits are A and H.
Firmware version:
The firmware version consists of three values X.Y.Z which are displayed for X and Y during the ini-
tialization, and for Z if the button is pushed during this initialization. X are displayed though menu
LEDs A - G, Y through H - N and Z is using all LEDs A - N.
Data version:
The data version consists of two values X.Y which are displayed at the same time through menu LEDs A - G
for X and H - N for Y.
Hardware version:
The hardware version consists of two values X.Y which are displayed at the same time through menu LEDs
A - G for X and H - N for Y.
