Installing Optional Extension Modules

The data collector uses the Extension Manager to install and uninstall extension
modules. These extension modules are licensed and ordered separately from the
basic entry-level product.

Install Extension Modules

The installation Secure Digital (SD) cards that you receive work with any
Dynamix 2500 data collector. Once you have installed an extension module on
the data collector, the card is locked so that it can be used with only that
instrument.

You can uninstall extension modules, if required. When uninstalling an extension
module, you have the option to free up the license so you can install the extension
module on another data collector. This makes the extension module available to
be transferred between units.

Follow these instructions to install an extension module.

1.

Open the base cover at the bottom of the Dynamix 2500 data collector.

2.

Place the extension module Secure Digital (SD) card contact-side-up into
the unit until it is firmly seated in place.

3.

Close the base cover.

IMPORTANT

One installation SD card is required for each instrument that needs to
be upgraded.

IMPORTANT

When ever you re-run the OS Loader software, you will re-load only the
main OS firmware. The OS loader will backup licence files and data, but
not the optional extension modules. Once you have updated the OS
firmware, install the latest version of your optional extension modules.
