FIRMWARE UPGRADE 

A firmware upgrade can be accomplished through VistaLINK® PRO firmware upgrade facilities. All 
7847FSEDA modules within the same 7700FR/7800FR frame can be upgraded simultaneously or one-
by-one.  However, it is more convenient to upgrade them simultaneously. 
 
Right click on 7700FR/7800FR frame that contains the 7847FSEDA modules, and select 

Version 

Information

 

 

 

Figure 7-4: Firmware Upgrade - Version Information Selection 

 
Navigate the hardware tree on the left side of the version information window to select the 7847FSEDA 
module listed (See  Figure  7-3).  The list on the right side of the window should populate with all 
7847FSEDA modules present in the 7700FR/7800FR.  Take note of the current firmware version 
installed on the 7847FSEDA modules.  This will be used later to confirm the upgrade has completed 
successfully. 

 

Check the 

Upgrade 

checkbox for all modules that require the firmware upgrade. Press 

Upgrade

 button. 

This will open a new 

Upgrade Firmware

 window. Press the 

Browse

 button to navigate to the firmware 

archive provided for upgrading the 7847FSEDA modules (

File extension is .tar.gz

). Once the correct 

file has been selected, press the 

Start

 button to begin the upgrade process.
