To upgrade a project to the new DAPserver Studio firmware version:
1.
Open the project; see section: see
2.
Save the project; see section: see
Result: The D20E module automatically restarts when the Sync project update is
complete.
The D20E firmware is distributed with DAPserver Studio. When a new release of DAPserver
Studio is installed on the Windows PC, the latest firmware is available to be downloaded to
the D20E module. Each D20E module is delivered with the most recent firmware version;
subsequently this process is not required on a new product.
The DAPserver Studio version should match the firmware on the D20E module. If the D20E
is running a firmware version that is older than the DAPserver Studio software version,
DAPserver Studio may not connect (communicate) with the older D20E firmware device.
However, most older firmware versions on the D20E will connect to the latest DAPserver
Studio.
Always use the latest version of DAPserver Studio.
