performed:

2.00 or above and the documentation from the Agilent web
http://www.chem.agilent.com/scripts/cag_firmware.asp.
2 Load the firmware into the detector as described in the documentation.
When required If new version solves problems of currently installed version or after exchange
of the detector main board (VWM) the version on board is older than previous
installed one.
