Updating software
Notes:
•
The controller does not automatically transfer information to or from
an SD card.
• When the SD card is put in multiple controllers, each controller has a
separate set of folders in the SD card memory. To make sure software
updates are in the correct folder for the controller in use, it is best to
use a separate dedicated SD card for each controller.
1. From the Settings Menu, select SD Card Setup and push the ENTER
key.
2. Select Upgrade Software and push the ENTER key.
1ote If tKe Upgrade SoftZare option does not appear do tKe steps in
Firmware updates with SD cards on page 0.
3. Select a device from the list and push the ENTER key. The list of
options includes the controller and all connected devices that have
software placed in the appropriate folder on the SD card.
4. If more than one version of the upgrade software is available, select
the version with the highest number and push the ENTER key.
5. Push the ENTER key to begin the software transfer.
The display will show "Transferring files. Please wait..." The
percentage of completion appears in the bottom left corner of the
display. The upgrade cannot be halted once it has begun.
• When the transfer is successful, the display will show "Transfer
complete" along with a prompt to push ENTER to restart the
controller or to push the BACK key and exit to the SD Card Setup
menu. Controller updates take effect when the controller is
restarted. A restart is not necessary for sensor updates.
• If the transfer is unsuccessful, the display will show "Transfer
failed" and an error message. Press the ENTER key to
acknowledge the warning and exit out of the menu. Error
messages are different for each sensor. Refer to the applicable
sensor manual.
Saving data and event logs with SD cards
Notes:
• Data and event logs can be downloaded to an SD card and viewed
with any device capable of reading an SD card.
• Data logs store the measurement data at selected intervals in a
packed binary format (.flg file).
• Event logs store a variety of events that occur on the devices such as
configuration changes, alarms and warning conditions. Event logs are
set up during the sensor or module configuration process. Event logs
are stored in a CSV format.

key.
