About Firmware Files
The firmware image that is stored in the flash memory of the RAID controller includes the
controller BIOS and the ICP RAID Console (ICPCON) software. Refer to the Software
Guide for more details about ICPCON.
The current firmware file is on the RAID Software Suite CD-ROM. To get the latest
firmware for the RAID controller, visit our web site at: http://www.icp-vortex.com or
http://www.vortex.de. You can use firmware files to update the firmware image on the
controller. See
Section A.2
for more information.
Firmware files are in the format SRC_RXFW.xxx, where the file extension xxx indicates
the version stepping. From ICPCON or ICP RAID Navigator, the firmware version is
displayed in the format x.yy.zz-A000 (for example, 2.34.00-R02D).
