Manufacturer provides DAMI-C users with an opportunity of upgrading embedded firmware
by the means of serial port communication with an external PC with launched NDT Software 
Environment program. This feature allows to be up-to-date with the latest versions of 
embedded firmware, available from VOTUM JSC, www.votum.md . The process of firmware 
rewriting should be performed with care, because in the case of failure during this 
procedure device becomes dead until successful rewriting procedure takes place. 
NDT software environment supports the mode of firmware rewriting. Firmware is contained 
in a single file "dami.bin".  Download the latest version of "dami.bin" from www.votum.md 
or use the file "dami.bin", provided in DAMI-C tool kit. 

The following steps shall be performed in order to rewrite embedded firmware: 

1. At the beginning of firmware rewriting procedure both DAMI-C and external PC 
   should be turned off.
2. Connect DAMI-C to the external PC using RS 232 cable.
3. Turn the external PC on.
4. DO NOT Turn DAMI-C on!
5. Press ENTER + SHIFT keys on DAMI-C. Pay attention to press ENTER key first, 
   as if you press SHIFT first, DAMI-C will be turned ON rather then will be turned 
   into firmware-rewriting mode. Device will turn to the firmware-rewriting mode, 
   it will beep shortly and will flash front panel LED once.
6. Run the NDT Environment Software. Configure communication port as indicated
   in NDTSW Using Guide. 
7. For firmware loading select in main window menu "DAMI Link | Load Boot Program". 
   There will appear a window allowing to select boot file name and to load this 
   boot file into connected DAMI-C device. 
8. Select boot file name and press Load button. This action will start the loading 
   process. You will see the progress bar at the bottom of the window. It is required 
   to wait until loading process will be completed. The process of firmware loading 
   is accompanied with successive turnings ON and OFF of green LED on the front panel.
9. On successful firmware loading DAMI-C will be automatically turned ON and ready 
   to operate.
10. Explore new features of DAMI-C if necessary.
11. Turn DAMI-C off.
12. Disconnect the DAMI-C from the PC.
13. Disconnect RS232 cable from DAMI-C.
