RPM4™ OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

5.4RELOADING EMBEDDED SOFTWARE INTO FLASH MEMORY

RPM4 uses FLASH memory. This allows the embedded software that controls RPM4 operations and functions to be loaded into RPM4 over its COM1 port from a computer with a simple FLASH loading utility program.

To replace corrupted software or upgrade your software, access the DHI worldwide web site at www.dhinstruments.com and go to SOFTWARE. A FLASH loading utility and the latest RPM4 software are available for download at no charge. If you do not have access to the web or have difficulty downloading or loading software, contact your DHI representative or a DHI Authorized Service Provider (see Table 29) for assistance.

If you believe you have discovered an error or “bug” in RPM4 software, please report it with complete details by email to cal.repair@dhinstruments.com or submit an on-line Quality Feedback Report under CALIBRATION & REPAIR at www.dhinstruments.com.

The DHI flash software loading utility and RPM4 embedded software are available for download from www.dhinstruments.com in the SOFTWARE section.
