7.4 Firmware Update Procedure
Updating firmware in the  MSI-7300  requires the following:  a DCE serial cable (MSI 
503363-001, or build per DCE cable schematic on page 22), a PC with a terminal program 
(“Teraterm Pro” recommended),  and if the PC does not have standard RS-232 serial ports, 
then a USB to serial converter. Make sure  the driver for the USB converter is properly 
installed, and that the terminal program is set up for the proper comm port.
The latest firmware code is available from  the 
 MSI service department and can be emailed 
on request. Your firmware version is displayed when the  MSI-7300  is turned on in the 
form of “01-04” (your version will vary).  Most firmware updates do not require a 
recallibration. Consult the versio n release notes for confirmation.
1. Setup the terminal serial port to 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, 9600 BAUD, XON/ XOFF (flo
 w control). 
2. Connect to the Dyna-Link serial port  using 
 the DCE cable. Connect the D9 
connector to your PC or USB adapter.
3. (Optional) Test that you have a connection  by
  typing {00FF01?}. If the connection is 
good the Dyna-Link will respond with  {000001r2;0;01E02;2011-07-08;11:05} or 
something similar.
4. On the terminal keyboard, type { ff0009
 =0199}
5. Change the terminal serial port to 38400 BAUD. Hit the ‘q’ key to refresh the  display
 . Cycle Power on MSI-7300 by removing and reinstalling batteries. The 
following menu should appear
MSI-7300

7. Send the .prg file using the file send f eature of your terminal program. The character 
“#” will tick away as  the ScaleCore programs.

9. Optional step: send q to check the program. The S caleCore will respond with a 
message that details the 32b checksum,  the product ID and version, and the 
application code version number in the following form:
Computed Signature BOB742D
Received Signature BOB742D
Product ID 07     Dyna-Link product family
Product Version ID 00     Optional features code
App Code Version 01-04     Firmware version number
If the CRC Signature does not match,  go back to step 4 and try again.
10.Send an “
r” to restore the boot menu.
