Updating Firmware Using USB Cable  

 

DB3 Plug&Play functionality is always improving, new firmware versions are 
developed. Current module firmware version can be retrieved from 
Configurator. See configuration description for details.  

Contact sales manager to get the latest firmware.   

The device must be powered on. Connect DB3 Plug&Play to PC with the USB 
cable. Launch “Firmware Updater”, select COM port to which device is 
connected, click connect, and when IMEI and Firmware version fields are filled, 
start the update. The device needs some time to send IMEI and Firmware 
version, so do not be afraid if IMEI will not show up immediately, disconnect 
and after 1-2 minutes try to connect again. The update process may take up to 
several minutes.
