User Manual
1. Introduction
The QM1004-0.5-18 Combined RF Upconverter/Downconverter is continually being improved and may
require firmware updates to correct problems in previous firmware versions or to add new features that
were not yet implemented in previous firmware versions. Table 2.1 details Firmware Revisions that have
been released and which features they fixed or introduced.
Table 2.1:
PIC Firmware Revision History

2. Firmware Update Files
The required files to perform firmware updates are uploaded onto the Quonset Microwave FTP server
and need to be downloaded and extracted to a location on the computer performing the update prior to
continuing.
Firmware updates can be obtained by clicking the following link and navigating to the download link in the
Software tab:

The zip files contain the necessary files required to perform the firmware updates. PIC Firmware Updates
require *.hex files and FPGA Firmware Updates require both *.bit files and *.mcs files. If the firmware up-
date zip file contains all three files, it is recommended to upgrade both PIC and FPGA firmware versions
to ensure proper performance as they likely work together and require each other for correct interaction.
