Update Firmware for Multiple Endpoints via RF
Create an Endpoint File
Before updating multiple endpoints, create a file of the endpoints to be updated.
A list of endpoints can be created from account information in the ReadCenter® reading data management software and
downloaded to a .csv file. Refer to the appropriate ReadCenter user manual for details. As an alternative, a list of endpoint
serial numbers can be entered directly into a spreadsheet file, similar to the Microsoft Excel file shown in Figure 24.
A valid file must include the endpoint serial numbers. Endpoint location is also recommended. Any other identification
information is optional. An example of a valid file is shown in Figure 24.
MPORTANTI
The endpoint serial numbers must be listed in the first column. All columns must have a header.
