1. Overview

For tracking the position of ROV's, AUV's, divers and other subsea assets, SeaTrac uses acoustic beacons such as

the X150, X110 and X010 devices. Periodically, new versions of the firmware these beacons run is released to

improve performance and add new features. Firmware is delivered in a file ending with the FWX file extension and

is programmed into the beacon via the RS232 serial port form a Windows PC running the SeaTrac Programmer

software utility.

This document describes how to upgrade the beacons to run the latest firmware release.

When upgrading firmware, it is critical that all beacons are upgrading to the same release level before use.

Trying to use beacons running different versions of the firmware may lead to unpredictable behaviour or

communications failing!

As several versions of firmware are available for different beacon types, it is strongly recommended that users

follow the procedure discussed below in this document...
