Updates via LAN/RS-232 Firmware Update Tool 2
Solving Problems
Multiple System Updates Not Possible
With a single user licence or using the Instrument Utilities, only a single
system can be updated.
Instant Pilot Screen Is Dark After Firmware Update
If the Instant Pilot’s screen stays dark after a firmware update while the LED
is green, the Instant Pilot
• has started its screen saver function - press a key to re-activate the display.
or
• has booted in resident mode. In this mode just a basic system is loaded
without the graphics drivers. Start the LAN/RS-232 Firmware Update Tool
2.7 and update the main firmware again. There is no other way to install
the main firmware in this mode! See “Recovering” on page 78.
Instant Pilot Update Does Not Finish
When updating an Instant Pilot G4208A that is included in a system with
G1315C DAD/G1365C MWD and G1316 TCC, the update may fail during
update of resident or main firmware. If this happens,
• turn off the G1316 TCC
• perform the update of the Instant Pilot G4208A
• turn on the G1316 TCC.
This problem is caused by the initial A.06.02 firmware of the G1316 TCC and
will be solved in the next firmware release of the G1316 TCC.
Firewall or Anti-Virus Programs may Block the Tool
If you get connect problems to the modules, please check your Firewall or
Anti-Virus program setup. It might block the LAN/RS-232 Firmware Update
Tool 2.7.
