# How  Program Omnia.9sg SNMP Power Monitor using FT-Prog

## Scope

This document assumes the reader is familiar with the Omnia 9.sg SNMP Power Monitor Board. If you need assistance or are missing any required materials please contact Telos Alliance.

### Required Materials

- Micro-USB-B to USB-A cable
- Windows PC
- FTDI’s “FT_PROG” programming utility
- OMNIA.9sg POWER MONITOR FIRMWARE [1621-00183-xxx]

## First Time Setup

1. Extract the files from “1621-001183-xxx OMNIA.9sg POWER MONITOR FIRMWARE.zip”
2. Run “FT_Prog_v3.6.88.402 Installer.exe” to install the FT_Prog application
3. Navigate to the location that FT_Prog was installed into. Typically, this is “%programfiles(x86)\FTDI\FT_Prog”
4. From the firmware archive, copy all files starting with “1621-00183” into the FT_Prog installation directory
5. Copy FT_Prog.exe to the desktop
6. Disconnect all other cables from the PC that contain FTDI devices. You can ensure that this is the case by running FTP_Prog.exe and clicking the “Scan” button (magnifying glass icon). Verify that the scan detects no devices.

## Programming Instructions

The Power Monitor can be programmed with just a cable to a PC. No host product or power

supply is required.

1. Connect the USB-A side of the cable to a free USB port in the programming PC.
2. Connect the Micro USB-B side of the cable to the power monitor board under test
3. Open FT_Prog.exe
4. Click the “Scan” button (magnifying glass icon) to scan for devices.
