Maintenance
Firmware updates
TPS Control provides two different options for updating the firmware in the TPS controller:
■
Initiating firmware update from ToolsTalk TPS
■
Initiating firmware update with an executable file
Both options requires connection between the TPS controller and a PC through the serial interface. Note
that this function deletes the existing firmware in the TPS controller. The TPS controller cannot be oper-
ated without a matching update file.
Only trained personnel should update the firmware.
