es containing Lithium Polymer Batteries. Read also chapter Warnings Con-
cerning the Lithium Polymer Battery Pack, on page 92.

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 MC6 firmware versions and downloads.
Transfer the update software to a USB Stick (USB Flash Memory). Make sure
MC6 is powered off. Connect the USB stick to one of MC6's USB-A ports.
Press and hold the Left and Right hardware arrow button and push the On/Off
button. The update starts automatically. Follow the instructions seen on MC6's
screen. The update is a multi phase process, so be patient.
Notes.
Updating MC6 firmware do not erase any user entered data
(instruments, calibration results, data logs etc.).
Supported file systems on USB Flash Memories are FAT 32
and FAT 16.
Also check for possible release notes accompanying the update file.
RESETTING MC6
Sometimes you may want to reset/restart the calibrator. To do that, press and
hold the Home and Enter keys for 7 seconds.
Note.
MC6 does not loose time, date or saved data during the reset.
It just resets the main processor. Open files may however be
lost.
