EPROM Software Upgrade

Installation Instructions

for INCON Tank Sentinel

ATGs (Automatic Tank Gauges)

Removal & Installation Steps

1. Printout or save the complete system and tank

setup reports for all tanks.

2. Turn off power to the unit.

Electrical Shock Hazard. Make sure

all safety shields are installed. Turn off

all power going to any TS-IEM Internal

Expansion Module(s).

3. Ground yourself to eliminate static electricity

(touch the metal safety shield above the EPROM)

and remove the older version EPROM (use a

non-metallic tool, or wooden dowel to pry the older

EPROM up at both ends) and pull it up using a

gentile rocking-motion.

4. Ground yourself again (touch the metal safety

shield above the EPROM) and remove the new

EPROM from its packaging. Align the upgrade

EPROM over its socket with the notched end

facing left (as shown). Make sure each leg (pin) is

positioned exactly above its mating socket.

5. Use your thumbs to seat the EPROM into its

socket (press down at both ends).

6. Turn the power back on and reprogram the Tank

Sentinel according to any special upgrade setup

instructions that may be provided along with this

instruction sheet.

Note: The Tank Sentinel console will require

reprogramming after the EPROM is replaced.

If you have been instructed to “cold-boot” the console then

you must save or printout the complete system setup and

all tank setup reports before cold booting. These reports

are essential because they show the most recent custom

setup program and shorten the reprogramming task.

Have a spare roll of printer paper on hand before printing

the reports. A cold-boot will require a total reprogramming

of the tank gauge (because it deletes the old custom

program and replaces it with a factory-default version).

Preferably save your setup information with a laptop

computer connected using System Sentinel and upload it

after the cold boot process.

On older boards, the J2 jumper should

be located on pins 2 & 3. If installed

on pins 1 & 2, the main board will not

recognize the EEPROM resulting in a

blank display and no heartbeat. Turn

off power before removing the jumper.
