Firmware updates (re-flashing)
BWB operate a policy of continuous development. It may occasionally
be appropriate to update the firmware of a product to enable
performance enhancements and provide the user with additional
features and benefits. To facilitate re-flashing the product must be
connected to a PC via the USB cable provided. The PC must have the
FP-PC program loaded either from the USB stick supplied with the
instrument, or from http://www.bwbtech.com/
Note: Prior to commencing this procedure it will be necessary to
obtain a Service Key from BWB
The firmware update will usually be supplied as an e-mail
attachment or downloaded from http://www.bwbtech.com/
If working with Microsoft Windows default settings the download
(from email or web) will be saved in your Downloads folder.
Open the Downloads folder and identify the re-flashing file.
This will be in the form of mainV286X22.nef.
Make a note of the file name for future reference
If the PC connected to the Flame Photometer is not network
enabled, the file can be copied onto a USB stick to enable it to be
transferred to this PC.

switched on, but the flame MUST NOT be lit. Ensure the PC-FP
