Hello There
My Proteus came equipped with O/S 2.3 and I have been using it with no problems.
I would however like to upgrade to the O/S 2.5 - I have read all the threads in this forum and it appears that others in my situation experienced a major problem after attempting this upgrade. To make sure I don't also have a problem, I reprint a section of FAQ covering this operation and would like confirmation that I have the procedure correct.
Notes I have changed the following:
Para b. I have changed three checked boxes to two checked boxes. (after doing the upgrade this line is correct)
Para c. I have changed the file name to Proteuscode25.pts and removed some words. (after doing the upgrade this line is correct)
Upload Proteus O/S 2.5 to a unit using O/S 2.3
a. Launch Proteus Editor and click the “Update Code” button on the top right hand side of the program window.
b. Notice that there are two checked boxes on the lower right, under “send data to Proteus” in the above mentioned screen; in the future you can selectively upload new session data, code or user preferences separately. Leave them all checked for the moment.
c. Point your cursor to the “Proteuscode25.pts” (exisits on my PC) file and left-click to highlight the filename.
d. Be sure your Proteus is connected to your PC, and if necessary press the MODE (middle) button until the display reads “dL” (for “dL Download”)[/B]. Verify that the PC cable is plugged into the AUX input on the lower right side of Proteus.
e. Now left-click the “Upload Code” button. You will see a display on screen indicating that the firmware update is downloading. The Proteus display should also show rapidly changing numbers during the download; if this is not the case then either you have not selected the correct serial port, or the serial cable is not properly connected, or you are not in dL mode.
Please could you comment. Thank you agodney
