8 Software Upgrades

LSC Lighting Systems has a corporate policy of
continuous improvement to its products. The
TEKO software is subject to this policy as new
features are added and existing features
improved

8.1 SOFTWARE UPGRADES

Software upgrades are performed using
CodeLINK software. CodeLINK is a Windows
based software program that allows the
uploading of software releases to the dimmer
from a Personal Computer or laptop. CodeLINK
software and the latest software releases are
available from the LSC Website

www.lsclighting.com


CodeLINK operates with a serial cable that
connects between a computer serial port and
the TEKO Codelink connector which is located
on the front panel of the TEKO dimmer.

CodeLINK Cable connections


The software version of your TEKO is
momentarily displayed on the LCD touch screen
when the TEKO is switched on or at any time by
pressing [Menu] [Options] [About].

8.2 INSTALLING AND RUNNING CODELINK


Close any open applications on your computer
for the duration of the upgrade process.

Run the CodeLINK.exe programme. Follow the
prompts on the screen, accepting the suggested
default settings. Once installed, click on the
CodeLINK programme icon to begin. Detailed
operating instructions for CodeLINK software
are contained in the help menu.

Connect the CodeLINK cable between the Serial
Comms port on your computer and the
CodeLINK input connector on the dimmer.

Turn OFF power to the dimmer.

When CodeLINK asks you to turn on the
dimmer, switch ON power to the dimmer.

The upgrade process will now automatically
begin. When the upgrade process is complete
the dimmer will restart. The LCD will display the
latest software version installed. Do not turn off
the dimmer until the start up message has been
displayed.

Disconnect the CodeLINK cable from the
dimmer. The dimmer is now ready for normal
operation.
