Upgrading Firmware in DGC-2020 and Expansion Modules
A device package contains firmware and a language module. Embedded firmware is the operating
program that controls the actions of the DGC-2020. The DGC-2020 stores firmware in nonvolatile flash
memory that can be reprogrammed through the communication ports. It is not necessary to replace
EPROM chips when updating the firmware with a newer version.
Future enhancements to the DGC-2020 functionality may make a firmware update desirable. Because
default settings are loaded when DGC-2020 firmware is updated, your settings should be saved in a file
prior to upgrading firmware.
The language of the front panel LCD can be changed by uploading a different language module into the
DGC-2020. The DGC-2020 stores the language module in nonvolatile flash memory; the language
module contains all language translations for the DGC-2020. The language module can be
reprogrammed through the communications port. In general, any time a firmware upgrade is made to the
DGC-2020, the language module should be uploaded as well.
The DGC-2020 may be used in conjunction with several expansion modules that expand the DGC-2020
capabilities. DGC-2020 expansion modules include LSM-2020, CEM-2020, and AEM-2020. When
upgrading the firmware in any component of this system, the firmware in ALL of the components of the
system should be upgraded to ensure compatibility of communications between the various components.
CAUTION
If power is lost or communication is interrupted during file transfer to the DGC-
2020, the DGC-2020 will cease operating and will not recover automatically.
