Firmware Updates

Firmware updates for the L4400 series instruments consist of updates to

the instrument carrier firmware, and if necessary, an update of the instru-

ment module firmware. The updates are made available via the Web. The

firmware is installed using the Agilent L4400 Firmware Update Utility,

also available on the web. This section contains information for locating

and downloading the update utility and firmware to your computer, and

then using the utility to install the firmware.

Downloading the Update Utility and Firmware

found on the Web at:

Agilent L4400 Firmware Update Utility

Save the utility application to a directory (e.g. Temp) on your PC. Note the

directory location as you will need to install the utility from this location.

Installing the Firmware Update Utility

Downloading the firmware update utility copies the application to your PC

but does not install the utility. From the directory where the application

was saved, double- click the firmware update utility application (.exe file).

For example:

FirmwareUpdateUtility_B_01_09_V3.exe

This starts the application’s installation “wizard”. Follow the instructions

as prompted. This will create and install the utility in the directory:

C:\Program Files\Agilent\Firmware Update Utility
