A system and method for automatically updating software on a measurement device includes a mobile computer application downloaded from an application store. A server pushes the application to the application store. A mobile device receives and runs the application. The mobile device connects wirelessly to the measurement device. When connected to the measurement device, the mobile device is prevented from having connections to networks or devices other than the measurement device. The measurement device includes pneumatic measuring equipment to perform calibration and testing on aircraft flight data instruments. The mobile application automatically triggers an update process for software on the measurement device. During the update process, the measuring equipment is not connected to any instruments. The updated software on the measurement device controls presentation of a user interface on the measurement device and controls operation of the measuring equipment. The mobile device remotely controls the measurement device.
