so before shutting the program down.

Uploading the Sensor’s Embedded Software
After clicking the Connect button, the software will check to see if your software version
matches the version of the sensor’s embedded software. If a discrepancy is detected, the Ver-
sion Control screen may appear asking you to install firmware upgrades (see Figure 4.12).
If you think you have reached this screen in error, clicking the Recheck button will have
the software retry and ensure that there has not been a communication issue. Clicking the
Details button will display the current sensor and software information. Click the Install
Upgrade button to upgrade the software.
