How to configure the instrument
Firmware upgrade
procedure
72
The time required to complete the upgrade is about 15 minutes.
CAUTION.
Once the instrument has started the upgrade process, DO NOT remove
power from the instrument. If you do so, the instrument flash will be corrupted.
The instrument will have to be sent to a Tektronix factory service center to have
the system firmware restored.
NOTE.
If power to the instrument is lost before it begins erasing the internal flash,
you can restart the firmware upgrade after the instrument reboots.
Perform the following steps to upgrade the instrument firmware:
1. Copy the upgrade file with a .bin file extension from the upgrade package onto
a USB memory device. You will need approximately 320 MB of available
space on the USB device.
NOTE.
If the upgrade package included a readme.txt file, read the file before
performing the upgrade. The file will contain important information about the
firmware release.
2. Insert the USB memory device into a USB port on the PRISM monitor.
3. On the PRISM monitor, touch the Settings icon to open the Settings menu.
4. Touch Utilities icon to open the Utilities submenu.
5. Touch Firmware Upgrade. The display will list all of the files on the USB
device with a .bin file extension.
6. Touch the desired file in the list to select it, and then touch Install to start
the upgrade.
