6.2 Updating the System Firmware
From time to time, improvements to system performance, corrections to errors, or additional
features and options may necessitate an upgrade to the system firmware. This is a simple
process of using a software application named MTool2. This can be located on the Diagraph web
site, under downloads
. To perform a firmware upgrade, download the MTool2 and fill out the form
to request an access license. Once the MTool2 application is installed, change the system baud
rate to 115.2k, if the serial port is used. Start the MTool2 program and once the system’s param-
eters are read, select the tab to download new firmware. This takes approximately one minute,
and concludes by re-reading the parameters.
