I f there is no electronics module available on site, one can be ordered
from the VEGA agency serving you.
T he new electronics module must be loaded with the settings of the
sensor. These are the options:
l A t the factory by VEGA
l O r on site by the user
I n both cases, the sensor serial number is needed. The serial numbers
are stated on the type label of the instrument, inside the housing or on
the delivery note.
Information:
W
hen loading on site, first of all the order data must be downloaded
from the Internet (see operating instructions manual "Oscillator").
T he electronics modules are adapted to the respective sensor and
distinguish also in the signal output or power supply.
8 .4 Software update
T he software version of VEGAPULS 61 can be determined as follows:
l
on the type label of the electronics
l
via the indicating and adjustment module
l
via PACTware
Y ou can view all software histories on our website www.vega.com.
M ake use of this advantage and get registered for update information
via e-mail.
T he following components are required to update the sensor software:
l S ensor
l V oltage supply
l VEGACONNECT
l PC with PACTware
l C urrent sensor software as file
A t "www.vega.com/downloads" go to "Software". Select under "plics
instruments and sensors" the suitable instrument series. Load the zip
fi
le via the right mouse key with "Save target as" e.g. on the desktop of
your PC. Extract all files available in the zip file, e.g. to the desktop.
C onnect the sensor to power supply and provide connection from PC
to the instrument via VEGACONNECT. Start PACTware and provide
connection to the sensor, e.g. via the VEGA project assistant. Close
the parameter window of the sensor, as far as open.
G o in the PACTware menu bar to "Instrument data", "Additional
functions" and "Update instrument software".
PACT ware now checks the actual hardware and software version of
the sensor and displays the data. This procedure lasts approx. 60 s.
