AccuGrade^® Version 6.11 has been released. This system update consists of both hardware and software releases. The new AccuGrade Version 6.11 Software will be shipped with the new Electronic kits for AccuGrade GPS that are utilizing the CD550A Display. The software functionality is the same as Version 6.10 with the addition of several enhancements. The software has been updated in order to allow the system to utilize the 291-1913 Satellite Receiver Gp (MS990)

Table 1 lists the minimum version levels of software that is required for the AccuGrade components that are used with AccuGrade Version 6.11 Software. If the AccuGrade Version 6.11 Software is used with system components that have older versions of software, the "Diagnostics" screen will be displayed. The "Diagnostics" screen will show the correct version of software that is required.

Note: If the radio software is not the required version level, the radio will be listed as "Not Found" and the "Diagnostics" screen will continue to prompt the operator that a problem exists.

Once the software is extracted, the software is broken into three main folders with subfolders in order to help clarify the use of the different file types. The software may be in two different file types if the component can be updated through the display (*.s) as well as through Caterpillar ET (*.fls).

Folder Structure

Display - Contains the display firmware (*.SG1)

Radio - Contains Radio folders that have instructions and firmware to update the radio.

Sensors - Contains two subfolders which are Cat ET Flashable and Display Flashable. Some of the AccuGrade components can be flashed with Cat ET and will use a *.fls file type. The Display can be used in order to upgrade the AccuGrade components by placing the *.s file on the root directory of the data card and entering Upgrade Software on the display.

Note: The display stores the minimum software for the AccuGrade components. However, Caterpillar recommends checking SIS web for the latest software.
