Upgrading Firmware<br />

The <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>AP</strong> is equipped with a nonvolatile re-writable Flash Memory for program<br />

storage. The firmware can be updated as improvements <strong>and</strong> advances are made in the<br />

embedded programs that operate the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>AP</strong>. Firmware improvements for the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong><br />

<strong>AP</strong> can be obtained by contacting the factory.<br />

Tools Required<br />

HART modem<br />

IBM PC with Windows XP or later, 16 MB RAM<br />

ValVue (provided with software upgrade on CD-ROM)<br />

Installing Firmware Upgrade<br />

It is recommended that the configuration is uploaded <strong>and</strong> saved prior to the installation<br />

procedure. Follow the ValVue instructions to save the old configuration. Follow the<br />

detailed instructions included with the software update.<br />

To check the firmware version cycle the power off, then on, to perform a cold start. The<br />

display shows software version in upper right corner. When maintenance is complete<br />

reinstall the positioner <strong>and</strong> perform the checkout procedure detailed in “<strong>Installation</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

Set Up” on page 23. Consult the factory for firmware upgrade services. ValVue is the<br />

recommended tool for complete re-configuration. See “Configuration <strong>and</strong> Calibration<br />

Using Pushbuttons” on page 93.<br />
