Software and Firmware

Here you'll find SmartFlux System (original) embedded software and compatible software for other components of the eddy covariance system. The following table lists the current software versions for LI-COR Eddy Covariance software components. Note that some instruments require updates to both interface and instrument (embedded) software. Note, too, that factory releases of compatible interface and embedded software do not always occur in tandem, so version numbers may not be in sync.

Frequently Asked Questions

Always set PTP to Automatic for all components in the system, including the LI-7500A/RS/DS, LI-7200/RS, and LI-7700. This instructs the system to use the best clock available, which will be the GPS clock in a satellite. If you choose another setting, the instruments may be unable to synchronize their clocks, and the data may be more difficult to align.
All of the SmartFlux Systems run EddyPro Software to compute results on site. The differences are given below.
