3.1 Preparing the Unit to Accept the Firmware Code
3.1.1 For DX-600 / DX-800 (v1.31 or higher) only
1.
If the device password was changed (Remote Password) from the default value (blank = 0000), it
is not possible to program the firmware code. In this case, enter the password in advance to the
Default Password in the Configuration dialog box, or enter the password at each communication.
2.
Make sure the device is not in use (i.e. copying or printing) when performing a firmware update.
Note:
It is recommended to update the firmware at night due to lower activity of the device.
3.
Ensure the device is not in Service Mode and that the PC can ping it successfully before
proceeding.
3.1.2 For other models
1.
If the device password (
Service Mode F7-01
= Key Operator ID Code, or Operation Password)
was changed from the default value (0000 or 000), it is not possible to program the firmware code.
In this case, enter the password in advance to the Default Password in the Configuration dialog
box, or enter the password at each communication.
For the 3-digit Key Operator Password devices, only the first three digits “000” of the default value
are singled out of the 4-digit “0000” value.

3.2 Preparing the Firmware Code
Copy the firmware Code file(s) to the following folder.
C:\Panasonic\Panasonic-FUP\Data
Note:
An Archive File (i.e. DP-2310_PU_030327.exe) extracts the Firmware Code Files automatically
into the designated folder without needing to paste the file into the folder manually. In this case
the file may be downloaded to the desktop or to any other easily accessible location on the hard
disk drive.
