7.4.1.1 Upgrading BIOS program
If your BIOS program is version 1.2 or prior, the patient monitor has a blank screen during
software upgrade. For BIOS program version greater than 1.2, the patient monitor enters the
upgrade screen and presents related prompts during software upgrade.
For example, to upgrade BIOS program from version 2.0 to 3.0 or greater,
1. Run the System Update Tool, version 3.0.
2. Download the BIOS upgrade program (110-000296-00). Create a system package using
the BIOS upgrade program and download it to the patient monitor. Turn off the patient
monitor after you finish downloading the package.
3. Select BIOS package version 3.0 or greater, and then select the “Start” button on the
System Update Tool screen. Turn on the patient monitor by pressing the power switch
(you are not allowed to press other buttons at same time). Thus you can upgrade the
BIOS program to version 3.0.
It should be noted that the patient monitor shows a blank screen for about 20 seconds when
you turn on the patient monitor for the first time after successful software upgrade. This is
because the new BIOS program is restoring the master boot from backup BIOS program.
7.4.1.2 Upgrading System Software
To upgrade system software version 02.02.00 or prior, BIOS program version 2.0 or greater
and System Update Tool version 2.0 or greater are required.
The language library and icon library shall be upgraded at same time when system software is
upgraded.

7.4.1.4 Upgrading FPGA Program
If your FPGA program is version 1.0, first you have to upgrade it to version 2.0 using the
System Update Tool version 1.4, and then upgrade it to the latest version using the System
Update Tool version 2.0 or greater.
Because two display memory models are available for the mother board, there are two mother
board FGPA programs. The two FGPA programs can be created into one package to upgrade
the FPGA programs for mother boards equipped with different display memories.
