The present instruction manual describes the
Firmware Update Tool as from version 1.8.3.
1 Information on the Application
The range of functions of our test instruments is regularly
checked, extended and improved.
Following each new firmware version which is issued and sup-
plied by GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH, we strongly recommed
downloading a new Firmware Update Tool from our website and
installing it on your PC so that you can transfer the new firmware
to your test instrument.
By setting the rotary switch of the your test instrument to position
SETUP, you can check via parameter query Setup (3/3) > Sys-
teminfo > Softwareversion as to which firmware version is
installed on your test instrument (firmware version = Softwarever-
sion).
Apart from a section for the initialization of files in the test instru-
ment, the Firmware Update Tool software always includes the lat-
est firmware version for transfer to the test instruments.
The present document describes all the steps necessary for per-
forming a firmware update for the test instruments listed in
chapter 2.3.
The system requirements are listed in the following chapter.
The installation of the Firmware Update Tool as well as the update
procedure are explained in chapter 3.
