For the update of Agilent 1100/1200/1290 series modules (as well as for the 8543 Uv-vis Spectrograph) there are two update utilities available that allow the update of the modules using a PC (instead of using the Control Module G1323A/B or the Instant Pilot G4208A).

The FWUPDATE.PDF (help of the LAN/RS-232 FW-Update Tool includes also information on 1290 Infinity modules and the Agilent LabAdvisor firmware update.

Use of older versions of the firmware update utilities may result into problems (incompatibilties with the modules) or missing features.
