Updating the EB500 with front control panel
The EB500 with front control panel can also be updated using the method
with the Update32 tool. Please take note that this method cannot update the
GUI. This might cause version conflicts between receiver firmware and GUI.
For updating the EB500 with front control panel, use the method described in
chapter 4.2, "Receiver Firmware and GUI Update for EB500 with front control
panel"
If the R&S
EB500 cannot reboot
Because the Update32 Tool performs its firmware updates over the LAN,
there could be a conflict if another user is running the tool in the same network.
The R&S
EB500 might "hang" after a reboot because the bootloader gets
"trapped" by this Update32 on the network. In such cases the best advise is:
unplug the network cable during boot-up and find out who else is running
Update32 on the corporate network.
