Before attempting to execute an update, check to make sure that the proper Gateway
and IP addresses have been set in the System Configuration Screen, see 6.2.1 above.
To perform an upgrade, from the Main Menu press the

the
Update Check
button. The MPRT will then look for the FTP server. Upon finding the
server the MPRT will present the user a Upgrade Monitor Screen, which will indicate the
status of the upgrade. The MPRT will automatically look to see if there is a newer version
of Software /Firmware available, and if there is it will automatically download the firmware
into the unit. If not, a message appears informing the user that there are no upgrades
available for that unit.
Firmware Upgrade via Compact Disk
A Compact Disk is available with the latest version of firmware available, part number
544323. There is a “Read Me” word document on the CD that provides a step-by-step
procedure on how to update the MPRT using the CD. Basically you turn your PC into a
“server” that the MPRT calls to download the new firmware.
Firmware Upgrade via Megger Website
Now customers can access the Megger website and download the same data that is on
the Compact Disk and update the same as if using the CD version. To download the
