In order to copy a new software into MAWS, please follow the
instructions below:
1. Check that MAWS includes a boot code that is version 4.07 or
higher. The version can be read using the commands VER or
SYSINFO.
2. Insert the Compact Flash card received from Vaisala into the
Compact Flash slot of MAWS.
3. Launch copying the new software by issuing the command
SWLOAD.
4. The MAWS software checks that the boot code is valid and the
Compact Flash includes Motorola's S-record at the specified
address. The firmware also checks that the Compact Flash is
formatted and that there is a file on it named bin.mot.
When the application has been copied, MAWS restarts
automatically.
If SWLOAD refuses to copy the new software, the reason can be
one of the following:
a. The Compact Flash card does not include a valid software.
b. The boot code is too old.
5. When the new application has been restarted, take the Compact
Flash card out of MAWS and store it for future use.
NOTE
Typically, the boot code and firmware are new enough in new
installations, but for upgrades both of them can be too old to perform
this functionality. In this case, the only way to update the software is
to download the software through the serial port.
NOTE
As the Compact Flash card cannot be write-protected, take care that
the card is not used for any other purposes, for example storing log
files. Copying the firmware is successful only when there is one file on
the card and it begins at the specified address.
