nance for MC5P. Never open the case unless have explicit in-
structions from Beamex or a local representative.
There are, however a few things that anyone using MC5P may do.
Firmware Update
The quickest way to see if a new firmware version is available is
checking out Beamex’s web site (http://www.beamex.com). Go to
the “Downloads” page and see what it says about MC5P firmware
versions and downloads.
All you need is a Personal Computer and the Computer communi-
cation cable that connects MC5P to one of the serial ports in your
PC.
Remember to backup all the instrument data in MC5P, using e.g. a
calibration management software. Also check for possible release
notes accompanying the updated file.
Recalibrating MC5P
Only laboratories approved by Beamex may recalibrate MC5P. Con-
tact Beamex or your local representative for information concern-
ing the recalibration of MC5P. Contact information is on the first
