Sierra Wireless AirLink RV50 Series User Manual page 29

Rev 1 Dec. 17
A message appears on the window indicating that the firmware has been suc-
cessfully uploaded.
Note: Sierra Wireless recommends that you do NOT skip the radio module firmware
update unless advised to do so by Sierra Wireless or an authorized distributor. If you
choose to skip the radio module firmware update, you'll see the following warning.
Once the radio module firmware is uploaded, the gateway begins applying the
firmware upgrade. On the AirLink gateway, the LED chase begins to indicate
that the firmware is being applied.
As indicated on the window, the radio module firmware may take 10 to 20 min-
utes to upload and install.
Important:
Do not disconnect the AirLink gateway from the computer or reboot the
gateway while the firmware update is in progress. During the radio module firmware
update, the gateway LEDs flash rapidly in sequence (an LED chase or caterpillar). When
the radio module firmware update is complete, the gateway reboots automatically.
Note: When you update the radio module firmware, the firmware stored on the gateway is
also updated. If there is not enough room in the storage, the radio module firmware update
fails. In that case, first remove one of the versions stored on the gateway to free up space.
For more information, see
9. When the update is complete, the AirLink gateway reboots. The Software
Update progress window appears.
When the reboot is complete, you are returned to the Login screen.
10. After you log in, go to Status > About.

confirm that the ALEOS software and the radio module firmware have been
updated.
