AS 488/TM

M02.02

2.2 Procedure for Upgrade to M02.02 with Programming Device PG740

Stop your AS running (e.g. with STO) and then switch the AS off before pulling the memory card!

For the upgrade, insert the memory card into the MEM-CARD slot of the PG740. Now start the batch UPGRADE.BAT (if applicable, information on the memory card drive, default setting is E:) resp. the corresponding link.

Syntax: UPGRADE or UPGRADE E: This batch file

-creates a directory C:\UPGRADE.202 (for this, at least 2 to 8 MB must be free on drive C, depending on the size of the user software).

-copies all files from memory card into the upgrade directory.

-deletes the RMOS system file, as this can never be copied to the MC.

-deletes all BAK files.

-copies the packed upgrade files from disk into the directory (the system files to be upgraded are then overwritten).

-reformats the memory card and sets up the RMOS system.

-copies all files from the upgrade directory to the memory card

Now perform the following two steps:

1)Put the upgraded memory card in the allocated AS 488/TM and initiate a reboot of the AS (power on).

2)Install the new terminal program ASBEDIEN V1.08 or V2.00 to your PC from the diskette (IBS tools) included with your delivery.

To check the update procedure, start the new ASBEDIEN and select the AS status screen ( BT,STAT:@; ). In addition to the start-up message, the system version ( M02.02 ) is displayed.

Notes:

Subdirectories on the Memory Card will not be copied. These have to be saved to PC/ Programming device bevor starting the upgrade procedure.

The upgrade directory is not deleted. This means that, if an error should occur during the upgrade process, the process can be repeated.

Attention: If more than one AS 488/TM memory cards are upgraded the directory must either be deleted or renamed between the individual upgrade processes.

The directory can also be used as a backup copy of the entire AS software (system and user software).

This means that repairs can be carried out on memory cards with defective software (create directory UPGRADE.202, copy backed up file to it and start the batch file).
