Update the firmware using web services in Remote Manager
Remote Manager supports both synchronous and asynchronous firmware update using web services.
The following examples show how to perform an asynchronous firmware update. See the Remote
Manager
for more details on firmware updates.
Before you begin, verify the TCP connection method your device uses to connect to Remote Manager:
query once a day or use a persistent TCP connection. See
WARNING!
The firmware version 1140F reorganizes the product's flash memory and
upgrades the product to version 11410. You cannot downgrade to a version earlier than
11410 after installing 1140F/11410.
Note
Digi Remote Manager requires TCP and will not work with NB-IoT, unless the carrier supports
TCP.
