Updating the PX Firmware
When performing the firmware upgrade, the PX keeps each outlet's
power status unchanged so no server operation is interrupted. Outlets
that have been powered on prior to the firmware upgrade remain
powered on and outlets that have been powered off remain powered off
during and after the firmware upgrade.
You must be the system administrator or log in to the user profile with the
Firmware Update permission to update the PX firmware.
Before starting the upgrade, read the release notes downloaded from the
Raritan website's
Support page
(
). If
you have any questions or concerns about the upgrade, contact Raritan
Technical Support BEFORE upgrading.
On a multi-inlet PDU (any model with X2 or X3 suffixes), all inlets must
be connected to the power source for the PDU to successfully upgrade
its firmware.
Warning: Do NOT perform the firmware upgrade over a wireless
network connection.
