[wxqc] VP1 Firmware Update

[steve]

I concur with Eleanor, I might add that software may be as well defined as a program added by a floppy or CDrom, but certainly ANY device that is hard coded will be Firmware...I Think! <G>

    Was wondering that myself.  According to Wikipedia it is the following.  Someone else might be able to explain it better.
   
  In computing, firmware is software that is embedded in a hardware device. It is often provided on flash ROMs or as a binary image file that can be uploaded onto existing hardware by a user.

”If you don’t ask
”  you know the saying.  So, there is hardware and software
so someone define “firmware” for me.  Thanks!

    Just done the same update for my VP2 and I believe one of the corrections was to the Barometer, my station seems to mirror the trend much better and more smoothly (less spikes) 

     

    Best

      I just updated the Firmware on my VP1 to Rev B, November 20 2006. 

    Update (rental unit) was simple, and went quick and error free.

    Now I have correct daylight saving, as well as new added features. J

    Nothing to do now but wait for about 30 days, and check QC daily, before making any adjustments

    Are there any known issues to be aware of after updating firmware?
