APPENDIX 5 - Changing the MCA166-USB Firmware

Attention:

The order of changing the switches must be followed exactly,

otherwise the μP will be destroyed!

The programming voltage (+12V) shall only be applied when the working voltage (+5 V) is switched on !!

Each MMCA must be programmed with it’s corresponding

HEX-file (e.g. MMCA #6 with Mca6.hex).

Programming the firmware can be done very easy by using the Firmware Wizard program. It is available from the Internet or from the supplied software CD.
