Firmware File Transfer Methods
Warning: Before attempting a firmware upgrade, turn off any connected appliances.
To upgrade the firmware of a Rack Power Filter, use one of these methods below:
• From a networked computer running a Microsoft Windows operating system, use the firmware
upgrade tool downloaded from the APC Web site.
Note: The tool only works with an Rack Power Filter that has an IPv4 address.
• From a networked computer on any supported operating system, use FTP or SCP to transfer the
individual AOS and application firmware modules.
• For a Rack Power Filter that is not on your network, use XMODEM through a serial connection to
transfer the individual firmware modules from your computer to the Rack Power Filter.
Warning: When you transfer individual firmware modules, you must transfer the
APC Operating System (AOS) module to the Rack Power Filter before you transfer
the application module.
