Flash erase and update

While updating a R&S

 

EB500, portions of the flash memory will be erased.

This erase process may take up to two minutes, after which the new firmware
will be loaded. This will usually take about one minute for the R&S

 

EB500.

The update progress is visualized by the progress bar of the "Update32" tool.

Interrupted Power to R&S

 

EB500

Switching off the power supply during the update procedure is not recom-
mended but will not harm the R&S

 

EB500 as the "bootprog" is still available

for subsequent firmware update of the system.

4.3.1

Preparations

Checking the R&S

 

EB500 firmware version number

Refer to the section 

​

chapter 4.1, "Retrieve Firmware and GUI Versions"

,

on page 47 to obtain the current version of the firmware in the R&S

 

EB500, if nec-

essary.

System requirements

For a firmware update you need:

●

An IBM-compatible PC running Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP
with LAN interface.

●

A standard LAN cable with RJ45 connectors.

●

The "Update32" tool for Windows XP requires a WinPcap installation. Installing
the latest version of the tool will also install the version of WinPcap that is com-
patible with the version of the tool (please note the disclaimer and the information
in WinPcap's "About" box).
