Step Procedure

Identify the reflashable product, firmware number, and version for download.

The current unit M&C version can be viewed at the top-level menu of the front panel display

(press the [CLR] key several times to view). The firmware information can also be found

within the UTILITY ! FIRMWARE! INFO ! IMAGE#1 or IMAGE#2 menu branches.

Using serial remote control, the firmware revision levels may be obtained with the <1/FRM?

query. For more information, refer to Appendix A. REMOTE CONTROL.

Create a temporary folder (directory) on an external PC:

! For Windows Explorer: Select File > New > Folder to create a new folder, then

rename it from “New Folder” to "temp" or another convenient, unused name. Assuming

"temp" works, a "c:\temp" folder should now be created.

Note: The drive letter c: is used in this example. Any valid writable drive letter can be

used.

! For Windows Command-line: Click [Start] on the Windows taskbar, then click the

“Run...” icon (or, depending on Windows OS versions prior to Windows 95, click the

“MS-DOS Prompt” icon from the Main Menu). Then, to open a Command-line

window…

o For Windows 95 or Windows 98 – Type “command”.

o For any Windows OS versions later

than Windows 98 – Type “cmd” or

“command”.

o Alternately, from [Start], select All Programs > Accessories > Command

Prompt.

At the Command-line prompt (c:\>), type “mkdir temp” or “md temp” (without quotes – mkdir

and md stand for make directory). This is the same as creating a new folder from Windows

Explorer. There should now be a "c:\temp" subdirectory created (where c: is the drive letter

used in this example).
