Program upgrade (Software and Firmware)
The MicroCorr Digital correlator and Out Stations have been designed so that their programs
can be upgraded as the latest developments take place.
The MicroCorr Digital Software is defined as the user interface within the base station, and
the Firmware describes the program that communicates between the correlator base station
and the Out Stations.
To upgrade the Software and/or Firmware a program must be installed on the PC. This is the
MCD Updater Application. The base unit requires both software and firmware to operate,
where as the Out Stations only require firmware to operate.
The application, the latest software and the latest firmware are all available as downloads
from the Palmer website www.palmer.co.uk/microcorr.htm
Once all the files have been downloaded to the PC start the MCD Updater Application and
follow the instructions as described below.
Screen description
The fields of the MCD Updater screen are described by number below.
Current System Information
1. This field gives the boot sector version within a base/out station and cannot be changed
by the user. It can only be used by Palmer engineers for system diagnostics.
2. This field gives the current firmware version within a base/out station.
3. This field gives the software version within a base station only, but will currently state
“Unavailable” before and after upgrading as the field is currently under development.
Note, this information can also be seen on the MicroCorr Digital information screen.
4. The ‘Update’ button is used to refresh the data in fields 1, 2 and 3.
