8.1.3Firmware Update

When new firmware (or software) is available for the Leica Geosystems GS20, the update will normally be provided on compact flash media. If however the file is delivered in another format, (e.g. E-mail or ftp) it will need to be copied to compact flash in order to perform the upgrade.

Tip: It is advisable to load firmware files directly onto a compact flash via a card reader in order to avoid possible sensor transfer checksum errors.

There are three types of firmware upgrades available for the Leica Geosystems GS20 Sensor

1.Firmware: Application software

•FileDesc.doc

•Build_##.bin

•Ventura.znc

•logoshde.jpg

2.Sensor: GPS Engine software (Indigo.run)

3.Loader: System boot, diagnostics and upgrade utilities (Loader.Bin)

)All firmware upgrade files must be placed in the GPS\Prog directory. Make sure to have a fully charged battery and exit all applications before beginning the update process. After start is selected, the program will

prompt a reboot to begin the update process. After the update is finished the user will be prompted to reboot the device to continue.

8.1.4Sensor Transfer

Sensor Transfer is used to transfer files between Leica Geosystems GIS DataPRO and the Leica Geosystems GS20 via serial cable or bluetooth. Sensor Transfer provides the ability to choose the port (Port1 or Bluetooth), define the port settings (i.e. baud, parity, bits, etc.) and accept any changes.

Tip: Device setting are available via the context menu.

Remember: Because of the exclusive nature of Sensor Transfer, all other applications must be shutdown before beginning a transfer.

8.1.5Clear System Memory

Clear System Memory: will set all user defined configs, recent settings, ID-templates, stations, ports e.t.c. back to factory defaults. This application requires also a full shut-down immidiately after proceeding.

Remember: Leica Geosystems GS20 does not have Undo!
