Introduction
In order to update your EDM-730/830 application firmware, you will need access to a personal computer with a USB interface and have a USB FLASH drive (commonly referred to as a “thumb drive”).
Step 1 – Verifying Applicable EDM-730/830 Version for this update
- Hold the Lean Find button (LF) while powering “ON” the EDM
- Continue to hold LF until you see a screen with product information text.
- Verify that the Firmware Revision is 3.17.xxx or higher.
Step 2 – Creating the Installation Media
- Insert an industry standard USB FLASH drive into a personal computer with access to the EDM-730/830 application update.
-

with .pkg extension (EDM830-Update-Package-V3-52.002.zip) and copy to the USB drive.
Be sure that the package file name is not modified in any way.
- Copy INFO-EDM830.hw file to the USB drive.
Step 3 – Updating the EDM
- With power to the EDM turned “OFF” hold STEP and LF buttons on the EDM and turn power to the EDM “ON”
- The EDM will start with a blue screen titled “AppLoader“
- Insert the USB FLASH drive created in Step 2
- The EDM screen will change to show “EDM730/830” and “Version 3.50” at the center of the screen and “Install EDM Update dated 09/16/15 04:54 PM” in the lower left corner of the screen.
- Tap the button labeled “INSTALL” (the LF key) to start the EDM update process.
- The process will verify the integrity of the install package and begin extracting files to be installed on the EDM.
- When the installation is complete (all files have been installed successfully and verified), the EDM will automatically boot, and start updating the AppLoader portion of the system.
- If prompted to update the AppLoader, press the key labeled “YES”. DO NOT POWER OFF THE EDM DURING THIS UPDATE.
- When the AppLoader update is complete, the EDM will automatically boot, ready for normal operations.
Step 4 – Verifying Correct Installation
- Hold the Lean Find button (LF) while powering “ON” the EDM
- Continue to hold LF until you see a screen with product information text.
- Verify that the Firmware Revision is 3.50.000 and Check Sum value is 055B56EA
- Verify BootLoader version is 8.00 and AppLoader version is 3.05
- This is a good time to verify that Program and Factory setting are correct.
