STEP 3 – UNPACK THE UPGRADE PROGRAM
7. The supplier will send you a file that has the serial
number of the scanner to be upgraded as part of its
name. Unpack this file to a temporary directory and
run the program named “SmartLF
Gx/GxTModelUpdate.exe”. Click the button labelled
‘Update Model’. This will then upgrade the
connected SmartLF Gx/GxT scanner and display the
words, ‘Scanner firmware updated OK’ on the
scanner display.
8. Exit the program and then turn SmartLF Gx/GxT OFF. Wait for 5 seconds before turning the scanner back ON
again. Check the scanner display and verify that SmartLF Gx/GxT is displaying the model type consistent with the
upgrade process just carried out i.e. that the upgrade has been successful.
