Q. When my Spanish language SkyScout (#93970-ES) is connected to my computer, the Upgrade Application displays the letters “-IT” after the serial number.

Q. When I upgraded the firmware on my Spanish language SkyScout, it converted the text and audio to Italian.

Answer:
When your SkyScout is connected to your computer via the USB cable, the SkyScout Upgrade Application will display the following information:

  • Current firmware version
  • Connection status
  • Serial number of your SkyScout
  • Voltage reading

If the serial number of your SkyScout displays any letters other than “-ES”, you will need to run the “ITtoESFix” program prior to upgrading the firmware.

To run the “ITtoESFix” program:

  • Unzip the contents of the zip file into a new folder on your C: drive.
  • Make sure the SkyScout is connected and powered on.
  • Make sure SkyScout upgrade application is not running
  • Press the Start Button
  • Click on the Run Command
  • Press the Browse Button in the Run box
  • Find the folder where you saved the program and select the file called “ITtoESFix”
  • Press the OK button to run the program.

Now you should be able to upload new firmware to your SkyScout.

SPANISH

Cuando el SkyScout esté conectado a su ordenador mediante el cable USB, la pantalla de aplicación de la actualización mostrará la siguiente información:

  • Versión actual del firmware
  • Estado de la conexión
  • Número de serie de su SkyScout
  • Voltaje de las pilas

Si el número de serie de su SkyScout muestra otras letras diferentes a “-ES”, usted deberá ejecutar el programa “ITtoESFix” antes de actualizar el firmware.

Para ejecutar el programa “ITtoESFix”:

  • Extraiga el contenido del archivo zip en una nueva carpeta del disco C:
  • Asegúrese que el SkyScout esté conectado al ordenador y encendido
  • Compruebe que la aplicación de actualización del SkyScout no esté en ejecución
  • Pulse sobre Inicio   en la esquina inferior izquierda de la pantalla Windows
  • Pulse sobre el comando Ejecutar
  • Pulse sobre la opción Examinar del cuadro Ejecutar
  • Busque la carpeta donde descargó el programa y seleccione el archivo denominado "ITtoESFix"
  • Pulse sobre Aceptar para ejecutar el programa.

Ahora podrá descargar nuevas actualizaciones en español en su SkyScout.
