Overview
This document describes how to upgrade the firmware on your Luna PED from version 2.5.0-3, to version 2.6.0-6.
CAUTION
: This upgrade applies to Luna PEDs running firmware 2.5.0-3. Do not attempt to apply
this upgrade to a Luna PED running firmware prior to 2.5.0-3. Doing so can cause the pre-2.5.0-3
Luna PED to lose functionality, with no rollback option.
The files and instructions necessary to get a Luna PED from version 2.4.0-3 to version 2.5.0-3, before you begin
the upgrade from 2.5.0-3 to 2.6.0-6 (in this present instruction), are available in the
firmware
folder in the root of
the LunaClient installation media, or can be downloaded from the SafeNet Support portal.
Files Included in this Upgrade Package
The update package includes the following files. All of the files are required to successfully perform the update:
ped-2.5.0-IPL.bin
ped-2.6.0-6-full-real.bin
LunaPED_Update.exe
Preparing For the Upgrade
Before you can install the new firmware, you must configure the PED to accept the upgrade.
CAUTION
: It is strongly recommended that both your computer and Luna PED be protected by an
uninterruptible power supply during the upgrade operation. A power failure while any of the file
images is being applied to the PED can result in loss of function that might require repair at a
SafeNet facility.
Prepare Your Computer For the Upgrade
The needed upgrade files, including these instructions, are provided in an archive file named for the PED
upgrade part number.

Extract those files to the Windows PC that is connected to the Luna PED that you are upgrading.
1. On your Windows PC, open a command prompt window and move to the directory where you copied the files
in the upgrade package.
Prepare the Luna PED For the Firmware Upgrade
1. Ensure that the Luna client, including the Remote PED option, is installed on your Windows PC. To verify,
ensure that the following files/directories are installed:
