Appendix: Firmware Upgrades
Updates are occasionally available for the Wi-Fi RF Terminal System when new features or improvements are
added.
Wi-Fi RF Terminal Firmware Upgrades
The RF Terminal firmware can be upgraded by downloading new firmware into the Wi-Fi RF Terminal from
your computer.
Normal Firmware Download for a Terminal
The Wi-Fi RF Terminal firmware can also be upgraded by downloading a file with the current firmware into
the Wi-Fi RF Terminal's flash EPROM using the Worth Data Hardware Utility program found on the Wi-Fi
RF Terminal Utilities CD.
If you have received a CD with the latest firmware or have downloaded the firmware from our website,
http://www.barcodehq.com, download the firmware into the Wi-Fi RF Terminal by following the
instructions on the screens of the program for a normal Terminal firmware update.
Failsafe Firmware Download for a Terminal
If a terminal's firmware gets completely wiped out (the terminal's battery or power adapter are tested to be
good, but the screen stays blank screen or only displays a cursor when you press the power button) you will
need to do a “Failsafe firmware upgrade” to restore the firmware.
To do a Failsafe firmware upgrade on a terminal that has had its firmware completely wiped out, run the
Worth Data Hardware Utility program (it can be installed from the Wi-Fi RF Terminal Utilities CD), select
the “Failsafe” option, and follow the program's instructions as it walks you through the steps to perform a
Failsafe firmware upgrade.
