Copying a New AWS330 Software from CF Memory 
Card 
As an alternative for updating AWS330 software through the serial port 
using loader.exe you can receive a pre-programmed CF (CompactFlash) 
card from Vaisala including the latest software to be copied. Each time 
AWS330 starts up, the boot software checks if a new software is 
available for loading on the CF card. 
To copy a new software into AWS330, proceed as follows: 
1  Insert the CF card received from Vaisala into the CF card slot in 
the QML logger. 
2.  Launch copying the new software by issuing the command 
SWLOAD. 
3.  The AWS330 software checks that the boot code is valid and the 
CF includes Motorola's S-record at the specified address. The 
firmware also checks that the CF card is formatted and that there is 
a file on it named bin.mot. 
4.  When the application has been copied, the QML logger restarts 
automatically. 
5. If SWLOAD refuses to copy the new software, the CF card does 
not include a valid software. 
6.  When the new application has been restarted, take the CF card out 
of the QML logger and store it for future use.
