The Firmware Upgrade Utility
The Windows-based Firmware Upgrade Utility (FWUpgrade.exe) provides a smooth, automated process
for upgrading the KVM switch’s rmware.
The Utility comes as part of a Firmware Upgrade Package that is specic for each device. New rmware
upgrade packages are posted on our Website as new rmware revisions become available. Check the
web site regularly to nd the latest packages and information relating to them.
Before you Begin
To prepare for the rmware upgrade, do the following:
1. From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation ( disconnect the computer from the KVM)
go to our Internet support site and choose the model name that relates to your device (GCS1204) to
get Firmware Upgrade Packages.
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.
