Double click on the file " Flasher.exe" starts the program.
For the safety warning press „execute“ (exectue), after this the program will start.
With „Search“ ("Suchen") you select the program to be transferred and ending " *.moc ", e.g.
FLYTEC6040_V328.moc, or you drag it from the Explorer by „drag & drop“ into the field.
Now connect the USB cable with the instrument, after that you can set the interface in the field Com
Port, or if it is unknown to you, set to Auto and have thereby an automatic search prompted.
The virtual interface COM should be positioned between 1 and 9. Above this value the Flasher
can no more recognise the interface.
Start the data transfer by clicking on Update. Then the version of the instruments’s Bootloader
shall appear and the relevant bit rate. The numbers appearing in the field on the right are the response
data of the instrument
.
Important: by contrast to flight data transfer make sure that the FLYTEC 6040 GPS is not
switched-on when the connection cable to the PC is plugged to the instrument.
Caution: never leave the PC cable hooked to the instrument for a longer period when
it is turned off. Indeed this is energy consuming and the battery could be discharged
unnoticed
Tip: under Windows the characteristic noise for USB devices should be audible when the unit is
plugged.
