A2 - Firmware
Update
The MotionWatch has the ability to be re-programmed
when new features become available. It is always
recommended that the most up-to-date firmware and PC
software are used to avoid possible conflicts and data loss.
To check for an update, select the ‘Utilities’ tab then click
on the ‘Check for Update’ button. The software will provide
a confirmation if an update is available for the
MotionWatch.
To update the firmware, ensure that the MotionWatch is
connected and then click on the ‘Update Firmware’ Button.
Take note of the warning message and click OK if you
wish to proceed.
IMPORTANT: All data and settings will be destroyed by
the firmware update process. Please ensure that any data
has been downloaded before commencing.
WARNING! Do not interrupt the firmware update process –
doing so may damage the MotionWatch which will then
require factory re-programming.
A progress bar will indicate the update progress (this will
take a few seconds).
The MotionWatch will then automatically disconnect, apply
the firmware, then re-connect. The MotionWatch Manager
window will be temporarily closed during this period and
will automatically re-load and show a verification message
upon completion.
Depending upon the type of update, it may be necessary
to manually re-set the MotionWatch. If the MotionWatch
Manager does not re-load automatically, disconnect the
Watch, remove the battery for at least 1 minute, re-fit and
re-connect the USB. The verification message should then
be shown.
A3 - Shutdown
Options
The MotionWatch has a low power shutdown function
which will help maximise the life of the battery. In the
utilities windows, there are two options as follows:
Auto Shutdown After Download: this option
allows the MotionWatch to shutdown automatically
following download. Data in the watch will NOT be
lost but the watch will stop recording. When not
selected, the MotionWatch will continue to record
until its memory is full and then shutdown.
Shutdown Watch: Allows the watch to be
shutdown manually. Click this button to ensure the
watch will be shut down when disconnected from
the USB cable.
