R&S® Remote Service
ToolYour CMU was delivered with the latest software and firmware version available. New firmware can be easily installed via the floppy disk drive (option CMU-U61) or the PCMCIA interface on the front of the instrument.
Note: When copying an installation
version to a PCMCIA card or floppy, ensure that all folders containing
a base system version or network option are in the root directory. Otherwise
the CMU will not be able to detect
the firmware and start the installation. If a Versions.new text
file (see section File
Versions.new) is used, it must also be in the root directory of
the external storage medium.
New software options must be enabled by means of a key code entered in
the Setup – Options menu (see chapter 4). This is necessary only
once; all options remain enabled after a software update.
Installation of new firmware versions and the use of different applications and versions on the same instrument is made easier by the following tools:
The R&S® Remote Service Tool transfers software versions to the instrument.
The CMU VersionManager is designed to manage different software versions stored on the instrument.
Installation instructions are also given in Chapter 1 of the operating manuals for the individual software options.
