CAUTION
Updating firmware will cause the units to reboot which disrupts data transmission
from the units.
At the top of the window the current firmware versions are displayed for the units.
If a unit is not connected, then the version information is blank (as is the case above
with the MTL831C #2). The latest firmware will be available on the Eaton (MTL)
website www.mtl-inst.com. If you suspect that the unit has become corrupted
(functionally – not just configuration data), then it may make sense to reload the
same version of firmware. Otherwise it’s only recommended to update firmware
when a newer version is available.
NOTE
Calibration and configuration data are not disturbed by a firmware update.
The recommended procedure is to download and save the newer firmware on
your computer. You will download a single compressed ZIP file that contains both
firmware files. Extract the files from the compressed file into a folder on your
computer. Files that end in “.838” are firmware files for the MTL838C and files that
end in “.831” are firmware files for the MTL831C. The file name will contain the
product name followed by the firmware version. We recommend that you don’t
rename the files.
When you are ready to update the firmware for the MLT838C, click on the Browse
button in the Update MTL838C Firmware box. The following file selection window
will appear:
