Version of Updater Program
Make sure that the version of the updater program is the same or higher than
the version of the firmware image you want to install. The version of the
updater program is shown in the dialog title of the first dialog.
If for some reason the version of the R&S
EB500 updater program is lower
than the firmware you want to install (e.g. because you installed an older ver-
sion of the firmware), just copy again the update installation file to the USB
flash drive, following the steps explained in
on page 49. This will overwrite the original updater program so that both the
firmware and the updater program have the same version on the USB flash
drive.
One image will contain an updated version of the receiver firmware as well as the
GUI. The receiver firmware will be updated first. The firmware will be copied from
USB flash drive to EEPROM on the processor board. The EEPROM needs to be
erased first, after which the program code will be downloaded and the checksum
calculated.
