LE5 Drug Tester Firmware Upgrades
Guiding you through how to upgrade both the Main Module and Sample Module firmware.
Before Commencing, Please Ensure the Following:
- You have the latest version of Alcolizer Technology’s AlcoCONNECT™ Toolbox software installed (select Toolbox Software under Toolbox image).
- You have downloaded the firmware update file.
- The firmware update files have been extracted (unzipped) to a folder on your computer.
- The LE5 Druglizer is charged, fully functional, and turned on.
- The LE5 Druglizer is connected to your computer using the supplied USB cable.
- Allow approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete the firmware upgrade.
To Upgrade Firmware
- Open the AlcoCONNECT™ Toolbox desktop app on your PC – AlcoCONNECT™ Toolbox welcome screen
- Ensure the LE5 Druglizer is turned on and connected via the USB cable (located on the left side of the instrument) to your desktop PC.
- A successful connection is indicated by a green highlighted segment of text, on the bottom left corner of the window. It will display the name of the connected instrument.
- At the top of the window, click the ‘Tools’ menu item, and then click on ‘Firmware Updates.’
- A ‘Firmware Updater’ window will appear. The Firmware update will take 5 minutes, confirmed by a beep from the instrument.
- Click either the small rectangular button on the top right of the window or drag and drop the firmware file in the input area.
- The computer will display a window to locate the firmware. Navigate to the folder where the firmware file was unzipped and select the MAIN MODULE firmware file (it will have “RN-…” in its name). Then click the ‘Open’ button. Note: File names used in this instruction are examples only.
- The new firmware file version will be displayed next to the existing firmware. If AlcoCONNECT™ Toolbox recognises newer firmware it will allow an update. In that instance, click the ‘Update Device Firmware’ button.
- Installation will take about 5 minutes. A bar at the bottom of the window will display progress.
- The instrument will emit a beep to confirm install completion.
