WCaution
To prevent unexpected loss of power, connect the ac
adapter to the tester when you update the software.
Note
The software update procedure does not delete
the test records, project settings, or user
preferences in the tester, but can possibly change
the factory-installed cable types or test limits.
1 Install the latest version of LinkWare PC software on your PC.
LinkWare PC is available on the Fluke Networks website.
2 Connect the Micro-AB USB port on the tester to a USB port on
the PC. See Figure 75.
3 LinkWare PC automatically tells you if new software for the
tester is available on the Fluke Networks website, and lets you
install the software.
Note
Older versions of LinkWare PC do not start the
update procedure automatically. For older
versions, you must have the software update file
on a disk or USB drive and click to start the
update procedure.
4 The tester reboots when the update is completed. To make sure
the update was installed correctly, tap the TOOLS icon on the
home screen, tap Version Information, then make sure the
correct version shows.
5 If you have a DSX-600 remote, do steps 2 through 4 again for
the remote tester.
