Introduction:

  • All AIRSYS lead/lag controllers can gain additional functions and improvements by upgrading the control software.
  • This software upgrade requires a Smart Key loaded with newest software. The Smart Key is available from AIRSYS to service contractors and customers to perform field software upgrades and can be loaned for up to 90 days without charge. For more detail, please contact ASNSupport@air-sys.com
  • Software upgrade resets all parameters to factory default.
