Updating the Firmware on the FlowStation
Firmware updates are free for the life of any FlowStation as long as the hardware is compatible.
Baseline will periodically release firmware upgrades that enhance the usefulness of our products or
fix the occasional bug.
You get the firmware update for your FlowStation from the Baseline web site with a USB drive. You
will need a computer with a USB port. This computer must have access to the Internet. You also
need a USB drive. You download the firmware from the Baseline web site to the USB drive. Then,
you take the USB drive to the FlowStation and install the update.
We recommend that you back up your current configuration before starting this process in case
you need to restore your system. Refer to Backing Up the FlowStation Programming on page 26.
Note: The following procedure assumes that your computer is running Microsoft Windows.
