Updating E645xx Receiver Firmware

NOTE

If your hardware configuration includes daisy-chained E645xx receivers, you must first disconnect the receivers, then connect one receiver at a time, and upgrade the firmware on each receiver. When you are finished updating the firmware, reconnect the daisy-chain, and reconfigure the daisy-chained receivers.

1In the System Setup view, configure a receiver measurement view. Once data logging starts, the E6474A software determines if the Agilent E645xx digital receiver has the correct firmware. If not, the message box in Figure 2 appears.

Figure 55 Firmware upgrade required, first dialog box

2Click Yes. The message box in Figure 56 appears.
