APPENDIX A
SUMMARY OF VERSION DIFFERENCES
A.1 GENERAL
This document is written to reflect the latest model and version of the instrument. The
summary provided below notes the differences between the current instrument and the
previous versions. Current functionality is: Logic 6, Advanced 3, MOD 30ML 2.
At present, upgrades are possible using the configurator. When an upgrade is done, any
blocks in the original database, which have later versions at the selected upgrade level, will be
upgraded to those later versions. This process will normally be irreversible, and the database
cannot be downgraded to its original level. A downgrade is possible if the database has only
those functions available in the earlier version.
The configurator tags each database it produces with the declared instrument version and the
minimum instrument version, which is the lowest instrument version capable of running the
database. The configurator determines, at the start of download, whether or not the target
instrument is capable of running the database and allows or disables the download
accordingly. The instrument itself makes a similar check when an attempt is made to
download from a memory module. The configurator will create a database based on the
declared instrument version when a database is uploaded.
