Using the VPC Configuration Tool you can update the device software (firmware), create and/or configure a device profile, as well as calibrate the sensors.
Key things you need to know before using the VPC Software Configurator:
Key things you need to know before using the VPC Software Configurator:
- For profiling or calibration the firmware version of the device and the version of the configurator program must match, for different versions only the firmware update procedure is allowed. The software version of the configurator is displayed in the program header. The firmware version of the device is visible in the device table in the "Firmware version" column. If the version is not matched, the configuration will issue a warning.
- All VPC USB devices are based on the same architecture and the same type of microprocessor. Therefore, the spftware (firmware) for all VPC USB devices is the same and ususlly has the name: "Firmware_vpc_YYMMDD_[CNT-ATMEGA32U4].hexc", where "YYMMDD" is the release version.
- Work with only one connected VIRPIL device, if you are calibrating or updating firmware - turn off all other devices, complete all procedures with one device step by step.
- To get started, select the device in the list at the top left (left-click).
- To continue you need to load the profile from the device to the configurator - the blue button “LOAD VPC DEVICE”. While the profile is loading, you will see a ticker with the heading reading EEPROM.
- After the configuration or calibration is complete, you must write the profile to the device, the green button “SAVE VPC DEVICE” and a ticker will appear in the EEPROM.
