The Firmware Upgrade Utility

The Windows-based Firmware Upgrade Utility (FWUpgrade.exe) provides a
smooth, automated process for upgrading the KVM switch’s firmware.

The Utility comes as part of a Firmware Upgrade Package that is specific for
each device. New firmware upgrade packages are posted on our web site as
new firmware revisions become available. Check the web site regularly to find
the latest packages and information relating to them:

Before you Begin

To prepare for the firmware upgrade, do the following:

1. From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation go to our Inter-

net support site and choose the model name that relates to your device
(CS-1762 or CS-1764) to get a list of available Firmware Upgrade Pack-
ages.

2. Choose the Firmware Upgrade Package you want to install (usually the

most recent), and download it to your computer.

3. Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable provided with this unit, to connect a

COM port on your computer to the Firmware Upgrade Port of your
switch.
