Firmware Upgrade
By upgrading the Firmware, you can obtain new features and updates/
improvements to existing functionality. To ensure the firmware is
kept up to date, please regularly visit our website to see if there is
any updated firmware version available. There are three methods for
upgrading the PDU firmware. Please follow the instructions below for
the method that is appropriate for your application. There are two
files to update in order to upgrade the firmware version:
* cpsmpdumbfw_XXX.bin
* cpsmpdumbdata_XXX.bin
Note that the XXX is not part of the file name but is where the
version number in the filename is given.
Prior to performing a firmware update, please:
• Download the latest firmware from www.cyberpower.com.
• Extract the downloaded firmware file to your local “C:\” drive.
Note:
1. The FTP service needs to be enabled before attempting to
execute a firmware upgrade.
2. Please do not turn the PDU off when performing the firmware
upgrade. PDU outlets will remain powered on while the firmware
update takes place. Only the PDU LCD screen will reboot.
3. The PDU LCD screen will reboot during the firmware update
process. This DOES NOT cause the PDU outlets to reboot.
