Caution
CAUTION: NEVER turn the transceiver power OFF
while updating the firmware.
You can turn the transceiver power OFF only when
the transceiver displays that rebooting is required.
If you turn the transceiver power OFF, or if a power
failure occurs during updating, the transceiver
firmware will be corrupted and you will have to send
the transceiver back to the nearest Icom distributor for
repair. This type of repair is out of warranty even if the
warranty period is still valid.
Recommendation!
✓
Backing up the settings and/or memory contents to
the USB-Memory before starting the firmware update
is recommended.
Settings and/or memory contents will be lost or
returned to default settings when the firmware update
is performed.
The downloaded firmware data
(Example: 7600_110.dat) should be copied to the
USB-Memory (in the “IC-7600” folder) using an
available USB port (a USB hub may be required,
user supplied).
