Compatibility Tables This page lists API analyzer and calibrator firmware revisions that are required for some of APIcom's advanced functionality. If your instrument's firmware is older (lower number) than listed below and you would like to consider upgrading the instrument, please contact us for upgrade options. Remote (RS-232) Configuration of DAS Whereas the basic functionality (remote control of the front panel functions) of APIcom works with all of our standard analyzers, new features that are introduced from time to time may require updates of the analyzer's firmware. The DAS feature built into AMX instruments was created around 1996. But the ability to configure the DAS through the RS-232 interface wasn't added to the standard libraries until revision 2.1 in 1999. APIcom only supports configuring the DAS in the DAS Configuration Dialog if the instrument has library revision 2.1 or higher. This capability corresponds to the "Has Calibrator Script Command" field in the Instrument Information Dialog. APIcom can download the DAS configuration and data in all instruments containing the DAS because this was an original requirement of the DAS. That is why with some instruments, APIcom shows the DAS Configuration Dialog but disables some buttons used for uploading DAS configuration and others. The following instrument revisions are required to support configuration of the DAS in APIcom without limitations. If you would like to find out, which version firmware and which library revision your instrument is using, please select SETUP - CFG from the front panel and scroll through the list of information. Note the firmware revision and the library revision and submit an error report form to inquire about our available upgrades.
Number of Samples in Concentration Average Another new feature of APIcom is to store the number of samples in averaged DAS concentration data. This feature is supported starting with the firmware revisions in the following table. Newer firmware also allows APIcom to use the internal DAS clock when extracting a range of data (instead of "all" data). This feature speeds up download because it transfers only those data that were requested. Previous versions of APIcom and older firmware revisions downloaded all data and then extracted the range of interest locally (i.e. in computer memory). Here is the list of firmware revisions that support this feature.
