Updating firmware in the MSI-8000HD requires the following: a DCE serial cable
(PN 150964, or build per DCE cable schematic on page 28), a PC with a terminal
program (“Teraterm Pro” recommended), and if the PC does not have standard RS-
232 serial ports, then a USB to serial converter. Make sure the driver for the USB
converter is properly installed, and that the Terminal program is set up for the proper
comm port.
The latest firmware code is available from the MSI Service Department and can be
emailed on request. Your firmware version is displayed when the MSI-8000HD is
turned on in form “01-04” (your version will vary). MSI-8000HD firmware updates
do not require a recalibration of the connected scale. Consult the version release notes
for information regarding the updated code.
