8-4 Updating the Repeater’s Firmware
The update tab provides file browsers to select firmware update files
for the repeater’s system software (“MCU-Application”) and the
bootloader (“MCU-Bootloader”).
The option to update program code for an FPGA (“FPGA-Applica-
tion“) is greyed out, as the repeater does not contain an FPGA.
9. Depending on whether you intend to update the repeater’s MCU
bootloader or its MCU application, click the respective button
to call up the file open dialogue. Then, navigate to the firmware
update file, select it in the dialogue and click
.
Note The file open dialogue searches for files with the extension ”.upd” only.
In case the update file has been given another extension for any reason,
the filename, including the complete access path, must be entered man-
ually in the respective text box of the update tab.
