7.5 Synergy Nano Software Upgrade Procedures
Tidal Engineering periodically releases software upgrades for the Synergy Nano’s operating system and
application. These upgrades are available from Tidal Engineering (www.tidaleng.com).
This section describes procedures for upgrading the Synergy Nano’s software. There are two procedures;
the first one is for Synergy Micro configurations and the second one is for Synergy Compact and Synergy V
configurations.
Warning: The Synergy Micro software upgrade process can disable a Synergy V or Synergy Compact unit. If
this occurs, contact the factory for a utility to correct this.
The Synergy Micro upgrade is delivered in a compressed format and is installed using a USB Flash Disk.
The delivered file name contains the Version and Build number.
For example: SynM_2.6.5_646_Upgrade.zip is version 2.6.5 Build 646.
The Synergy Nano Configuration Backup and Restore features should be used to backup any non-standard
settings before performing the upgrade. In addition, you should manually record the entries in the table
below including your Cascade and Web Server registration keys if your chamber employs those features as
well as the Chamber Type so these can be restored after the installation.
To install the upgrade:
1. Backup Non-Standard settings and record registrations and chamber configuration.
2. Install the new software.
3. Load chamber configuration and restore non-standard settings and registration keys.
Step 1. Backup Settings
For Versions 2.6.X and newer, Browse to the
Maintenance Screen \File Utilities\Config
Utilities folder and open the Backup
Settings Folder.
For older versions that don’t have the Backup
Settings feature, either record the settings
manually or use SimpleComm to download
the settings. See Section 8.3
for a discussion
of that procedure.
