Refer to your software user guide for these details.
8.4 Configure the FTP server to download
firmware
Each time a AMS Machinery Health Monitor powers up, it checks for firmware on the FTP
server. If it finds firmware, it compares the version with the firmware stored in internal
flash memory. If the versions are different, the version on the server is downloaded to the
AMS Machinery Health Monitor.
Unless otherwise specified, AMS Machinery Health Monitor systems are pre-configured
and set up during commissioning.
The FTP server must be configured on a computer on the network so that a AMS Machinery
Health Monitor can obtain firmware updates. If an FTP site is not available, the AMS
Machinery Health Monitor boots from the firmware stored in memory. The FTP service is
available but not enabled by default on Microsoft Windows. Refer to your Microsoft
Software configuration
