Upgrade Installation

Instructions

These instructions tell you how to perform an instrument

firmware upgrade to a medTester 5000C and how to install

optional modules into a Fluke Biomedical medTester 5000C.

Note

If you ordered more than one module and/or upgrade, you have

received more than one set of these instructions. But you can

perform all installations at the same time with one set of instructions.

Before You Begin

In these instructions, upgrade means that you are bringing up to date the firmware

in your medTester 5000. Upgrading involves replacing firmware integrated circuits

(ICs). Enabling modules means that you are installing software from diskettes to your

medTester in order to make medTester modules available for use.

In some cases you need to install additional ICs that work with specific

medTester 5000C modules. These are the modules for Expanded Memory, and

medCheck. You have received all of the parts necessary to perform the installation

yourself and to enable individual medTester 5000C modules.

If you have already had Fluke Biomedical upgrade your medTester or install

modules at the factory, you are receiving the module installation disks in the event

that you need to reinstall the modules later. Please save these instructions with

your installation disks. Your instrument is ready to use.

MEDTESTER 5000C FIELD UPGRADE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: IMPORTANT

When upgrading your 5000C firmware, all memory for test

records and checklists will be erased. Process all current

medTester test records first. For example, upload them to

your compatible CMMS or print them.

Note

If you are installing a medTester 5000C firmware Upgrade; and

Modules 4 or 7; install your ICs before enabling the module(s).

For a -medTester 5000C Firmware Upgrade or to install modules that contain ICs

(integrated circuits)

•a knife (not needed if the quality sticker has previously been removed);

•a Phillips screwdriver, #2-type;

•an IC removal tool (not needed for instruments with lever handle IC

sockets).

MEDTESTER 5000C FIELD UPGRADE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

To install modules that include an installation disk

•an IBM-compatible personal computer with:

9Microsoft Windows Operating Systems (95, 98, 2000, or XP);

9a 3.5" floppy disk drive;

9a serial port (or compatible USB to serial converter).

•a medTester-to-PC interface cable:

1. If your computer has a 25-pin serial port:

use a 25-pin female to 25-pin female null-modem cable

(Fluke Biomedical part no. 2392186).

2. If your computer has a 9 pin serial port:

use a 25-pin female to 9-pin female, null-modem cable

(Fluke Biomedical part no. 2200102).

Installing Integrated Circuits

Use the procedures described in this section for installing:

1. Any modules that include ICs to be installed inside the instrument,

including:

•Firmware Upgrade

•Module 4: Expanded Memory

•Module 7: medCheck

If you are not installing ICs, skip to the section Enabling Modules below.

All ICs (integrated circuits) have a notch, dot, or dimple on one end. This is the

end with pin 1. All the ICs referenced here are oriented so that pin 1 is towards

the rear of the instrument. Note the notch marked on the PCB (printed circuit

board) on that end.

Note

Always orient an IC correctly when installing it or you could damage

it.

All ICs are referenced by a U number (U20, U21, etc.). The U numbers are

marked on the PCB. When installing an IC, make sure all the pins go into the

socket holes and none are stuck out or bent under. If the instrument doesn't work

correctly after installing an IC, check that it is the correct IC, that all the pins are in

the holes, and that the orientation is correct.

IC Removal and Installation Description

There are two types of IC sockets which you may encounter—one that is plain,

and one that has a lever handle. ICs are removed or installed as follows:

Plain Socket IC Removal

•Hook the IC removal tool under each end of the IC, and pull it out

of the socket, OR

•Insert a small flat-bladed screwdriver under alternate ends, and

carefully pry them up until the IC comes out.

Plain Socket IC Installation

•Press the IC into the socket firmly.

Lever Handle IC Socket Removal

•Hold down the IC firmly with a finger, and

•Pull the lever up. Remove the IC by hand.

IC Installation Procedure

This section describes the procedure you can use to install ICs. It includes

instructions for the disassembly of the medTester 5000, replacement and

installation of ICs, testing of your IC installation, and reassembly.

Note

This is your authorization to remove the Quality seal and to open the

instrument case to install legitimately purchased upgrades and

modules.

DANGER—UNPLUG THE INSTRUMENT POWER CORD!

Service should only be performed by qualified personnel. There are

dangerous voltages present inside this instrument. Always unplug the

power cord before opening the case. Never plug in the power cord

while the case is open.

Disassembly

Disassembly involves opening the medTester case in order to access ICs. To

disassemble:

1. Peel off the Quality seal sticker that seals the case halves together.

Discard it.

2. Remove the nine (9) screws and lockwashers holding the top case to

the bottom case. There are four (4) on top, two (2) in the front, and

three (3) in the back.

3. Pull the case halves apart. Pull the top half forward while turning it

upside down and lay it down. There are cables connecting the two

halves together. Take notice of these—if they come apart, you will

know how to put them back together.

4. Remove the six (6) screws holding the metal shield to the digital PCB

(printed circuit board).

MEDTESTER 5000C FIELD UPGRADE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install Integrated Circuits

1. For a medTester 5000C Firmware Upgrade, remove IC U20 and U21

on the digital PCB, and install the new U20 and U21 (40-pin devices

with labels).

2. For Modules 4 (Expanded Memory) and 7 (medCheck), install all the

RAM ICs (32-pin devices without labels) that you have received in the

next available positions—U23, U24, U25, U26, U27, in that order.

Test the Installation

1. Fold the two case halves back together temporarily, closing the case.

2. Plug in the instrument, turn on the power:

A. For a Firmware Upgrade an initialization will be performed

automatically.

B. Calibration is not affected by this initialization, so the instrument

remains calibrated.

C. The instrument should display a startup message, then display MAIN

MENU 1.

D. Test the RAMs: From MAIN MENU 1, press F5 UTIL, then RIGHT

arrow, then F2 DIAG, then F4 MEMORY, then F2 RAM. The indicated

RAM ICs should test GOOD:

•All instruments: U22

•With Module 4 Expanded Memory: U23

•With Module 7 medCheck: U24, U25, U26, and U27

•Press Esc enough times to return to MAIN MENU 1.

Reassembly

Reassemble the instrument now.

1. You should have temporarily closed the case. With the unit unplugged,

now open the case again by unfolding the top case and laying it down.

2. Attach the shield to the digital PCB with the six (6) screws. These are

the steel screws without lockwashers.

3. Make sure all cables are still in place. If they have slipped off,

reconnect them firmly.

4. Fold the case halves back together. Attach the top case to the bottom

case with the nine (9) screws and lockwashers. These are the stainless

steel screws.

Enabling Modules

Perform the steps described below for installing Modules 2 through 14. You need

to install each module from its separate diskette. Installation requires running a

program on an IBM-compatible personal computer.

Note

You MUST install the modules that you have received in numerical

order, starting with Module 2, or the lowest numbered module you

have. Installing modules in numerical order will lead to a successful

installation.

1. Use the medTester 5000C COM1 port.

2. Decide on a computer COM port—(COM1 through COM4).

3. Decide on a baud rate—(300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, or 19200).

4. To change the medTester baud rate from MAIN MENU 1:

A. Press F5 UTIL, then F1 BAUD;

B. Select the COM1 port;

C. Press F4 BAUD until the desired baud rate is displayed;

D. Press F5 STORE; Press Esc twice to return to MAIN MENU 1.

Note

If Module 2 (RS-232/Printer) has not yet been installed, the

medTester baud rate is not selectable and can not be adjusted. It is

permanently set to 9600. After you install Module 2, you can change

the baud rate.

5. Connect the computer COM port to the medTester COM1 port

(medTester to PC null modem serial cable).
