Updating 5200A Firmware
Like all microprocessor based instruments, it may be necessary to upload revisions
to the 5200A firmware. Download new firmware using the Firmware Updater utility
in AquaManager. A serial RS232 connection is necessary to run the Downloader
program.
The instrument firmware may become corrupted if any of the following occurs
during a 5200A firmware update:
- Firmware Updater utility is closed;
- AquaManager is closed;
- RS232 cable is removed from 5200A or PC com port;
- power is disconnected from 5200A.
If the 5200A’s firmware becomes corrupted and is not updated properly, the instru-
ment will need to be returned to YSI .

Firmware Updater Directions
1. Wire RS232 connection. See RS232 Communication - page 59. (Dis-
regard if already using RS232 connection.)
Note:
Connect RS232 directly into slaves in order to upload firmware to slaves.
Disable slaves at the master to avoid slave failure alarms when uploading
- Menus → System → Communications → Network →Master.
2. Enable the Force Serial Port on 5200As wired and configured with an
ethernet device - page 100.
3. Verify that the baud rate in 5200A Communications menu is configured
to 115200.
4. From the AquaManager Explorer window, access the Firmware Updater
utility from the pull down menu: Tools→ Instrument tools→Update
Firmware.
5. Configure PC com port number (1-8) in Flash Programmer.
Notes:
- Use only a Tripp-Lite Keyspan USB-Serial Adapter, model USA-19HS
YSI p/n 773 .
- When using USB-Serial Adapter, verify that the port number assigned
during driver installation is the same port configured when using Aqua-
Manager Flash Programmer.
