are placed in the Firmware directory.
To upload firmware to a device:
1. Click the device to update in the device list.
2. Click Firmware on the main toolbar.
3. On the Update Firmware tab, select the device to update firmware. If firmware is currently
available for that device, it is shown in Firmware File in the File Selection section of the screen
as shown in
Figure 11 (page 27) .
4. Click Start Update at the bottom of the screen to begin the update.
Click OK in the Firmware Update status dialog. The Firmware Update Results tab is displayed,
showing a log of the firmware upload activity. Set the Current Detail Level to the appropriate level.
The default is Normal. If you want to clear the log, click Clear Log button.

On completion of firmware update, the Firmware Update status dialog box is displayed, explaining
what happens to the Windows plug-and-play implementation. It also explains how to make the
drive visible to L&TT and the Windows operating system, so that it will operate properly.
CAUTION: Make sure that no other programs attempt to access the device while the firmware
is being updated. Do not interrupt the firmware update. If the firmware update is interrupted, the
device may not operate and may require physical repair.
