Firmware Update screen
Path: UPS > Configuration > Firmware Update
This option is not available for all UPS devices.
The update here refers to the firmware on the UPS. Do not confuse this with an NMC firmware
upgrade (see “File Transfers”).
Follow the instructions on the Firmware Update screen to determine if the output of your UPS
needs to be turned off in advance of a firmware update. This is specific to the UPS model.
NOTE: To view the Firmware Update screen with Internet Explorer
®
, use version 10 or higher, with
compatibility view turned off. The Firmware Update screen is not compatible with the Edge
®
browser.
Follow these steps to update the firmware. (See also “Using FTP to update the UPS firmware” for alternative
ways).
