1 00:00:10,766 --> 00:00:12,433 Hello, my name is Alex Thurston, 2 00:00:12,433 --> 00:00:15,300 and today I’ll show you how to update your Vanta software. 3 00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:16,766 You can update your Vanta software 4 00:00:16,766 --> 00:00:18,200 one of two ways, either by using 5 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,900 a wireless connection or by using a USB device. 6 00:00:21,900 --> 00:00:23,700 Ensuring that your instrument is updated 7 00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:26,000 to the latest software version allows you 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,700 to get the benefits of any up to date improvements 9 00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:32,000 as well as any analytical improvements 10 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,833 that may have come from the factory. 11 00:00:33,833 --> 00:00:35,733 In addition to these improvements, 12 00:00:35,733 --> 00:00:37,366 often times there will be features that are 13 00:00:37,366 --> 00:00:40,000 bundled with the software download. 14 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,233 In order to update the Vanta software wirelessly, 15 00:00:44,233 --> 00:00:47,633 first log in to the instrument using the administrator log in. 16 00:00:47,633 --> 00:00:51,900 Once logged in, ensure that the wireless connection 17 00:00:51,900 --> 00:01:00,400 is connected and enabled. 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,700 After that we will return to the menu tray. 19 00:01:02,700 --> 00:01:05,766 and select About Device. 20 00:01:05,766 --> 00:01:10,366 In this menu we’ll select versions and updates. 21 00:01:10,366 --> 00:01:13,366 And then on this screen, if any updates are available, 22 00:01:13,366 --> 00:01:16,133 they will display on this screen. 23 00:01:16,133 --> 00:01:19,600 In this case we can see that an update is available. 24 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,933 Additionally there will also be an icon at the bottom of the screen 25 00:01:22,933 --> 00:01:25,600 indicated by an arrow pointing down at a bar. 26 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,833 If no update is available this icon will not display. 27 00:01:29,833 --> 00:01:32,966 In order to start the software download 28 00:01:32,966 --> 00:01:40,433 simply click the icon at the bottom of the screen. 29 00:01:40,433 --> 00:01:43,233 After downloading, the software will self-extract 30 00:01:43,233 --> 00:01:45,400 and the instrument will complete a re-boot 31 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,066 in order to complete the installation. 32 00:01:48,066 --> 00:01:50,433 When the login screen displays again 33 00:01:50,433 --> 00:01:52,300 the installation is complete. 34 00:01:52,300 --> 00:01:55,000 Additionally you’ll note that the new software version 35 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,700 is reflected in the lower right hand corner of the screen. 36 00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:00,433 Now I’ll show you how to update your 37 00:02:00,433 --> 00:02:03,600 Vanta software using a USB device. 38 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,166 With the instrument off, insert the USB device 39 00:02:08,166 --> 00:02:11,166 with the software installed on the USB device. 40 00:02:11,166 --> 00:02:12,966 You can find the software on the 41 00:02:12,966 --> 00:02:17,700 Olympus-IMS website under resources. 42 00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:21,666 Once the USB device is inserted in the instrument 43 00:02:21,666 --> 00:02:25,333 hold the left button on the back of the instrument 44 00:02:25,333 --> 00:02:28,733 and turn the power on. 45 00:02:28,733 --> 00:02:30,966 Continue to hold the left button while 46 00:02:30,966 --> 00:02:35,366 turning the power on the instrument. 47 00:02:35,366 --> 00:02:36,933 As the instrument boots up 48 00:02:36,933 --> 00:02:39,000 you will see the Olympus Vanta software 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,400 installer screen display on the instrument. 50 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,566 At this point, the software can now 51 00:02:45,566 --> 00:02:48,300 be installed on the instrument. 52 00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:52,433 Press the center key to begin the installation. 53 00:02:52,433 --> 00:02:54,666 After the software has been downloaded 54 00:02:54,666 --> 00:02:56,300 and installed on the instrument 55 00:02:56,300 --> 00:02:58,133 you’ll see that the instrument prompts you 56 00:02:58,133 --> 00:03:01,333 to remove the USB stick to complete the update. 57 00:03:01,333 --> 00:03:05,166 So at this point I’ll remove the USB stick. 58 00:03:05,166 --> 00:03:08,066 After this the Vanta will go black. 59 00:03:08,066 --> 00:03:11,300 The screen may flash but this is normal. 60 00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:13,733 Depending on the software update 61 00:03:13,733 --> 00:03:16,433 your instrument may also need a firmware update. 62 00:03:16,433 --> 00:03:18,833 The latest version of software will have 63 00:03:18,833 --> 00:03:22,466 any necessary software updates as well as any firmware updates 64 00:03:22,466 --> 00:03:25,466 and these will install ensuring that your instrument 65 00:03:25,466 --> 00:03:27,533 is as up to date as possible. 66 00:03:27,533 --> 00:03:29,866 After the USB installation is complete 67 00:03:29,866 --> 00:03:31,933 the login screen will display. 68 00:03:31,933 --> 00:03:34,266 At the bottom right hand corner of the login screen 69 00:03:34,266 --> 00:03:37,666 the latest software version will display. 70 00:03:37,666 --> 00:03:39,800 So I hope that these two easy ways 71 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,800 of updating your Vanta software were helpful for you. 72 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,833 Thank you for watching.
