7. Verify that at least 3 configuration files are created -
fwupdate.cfg

any PX with these files. See

(on page 503).
Firmware Upgrade via USB
Firmware files are available on Raritan website's
Support page
(
Note that if the firmware file used for firmware upgrade is the same as
the firmware version running on the PX, no firmware upgrade will be
performed unless you have set the
force_update
option to true in the
"fwupdate.cfg" file. See
fwupdate.cfg
(on page 506).
To use a USB drive to upgrade the PX:
1. Copy the configuration file "fwupdate.cfg" and an appropriate
firmware file to the root directory of the USB drive.
2. Reference the firmware file in the
image
option of the "fwupdate.cfg"
file.
3. Plug the USB drive into the USB-A port on the PX.
4. The PX performs the firmware upgrade. The upgrade message
"FuP" is shown on the front panel display.
Tip: You can remove the USB drive and plug it into another PX for
firmware upgrade when the firmware upgrade message displays.
5. It may take one to five minutes to complete the firmware upgrade,
depending on your product.
6. When the firmware upgrade finishes, the front panel display indicates
the firmware upgrade result.
