Module Firmware Upgrade Program

IMPORTANT: The Module Update Program is required for all module updates.

You can upgrade Agilent module firmware via GPIB. In some cases, LAN or a serial null-modem cable connection can also be used.

Requirements:

• PC running Windows operating system.
• To update via GPIB the PC must be fitted with a suitable interface card or adapter.
• Alternatively, a serial null-modem cable is required, such as is supplied with your Agilent Lightwave mainframe.

Download and extract "ModuleUpdate.exe" to a directory on your PC's hard drive, then execute Module_Update.exe to install the module update program.

The readme.htm file asssociated with the module update program contains:

• Notification of prerequisites,
• Notification of known issues,
• as well as detailed instructions for use.

Be sure to study this file before attempting to use the module update software.
