To locate the latest UEI firmware after installing the PowerDNA Software Suite,
browse to the installation's Firmware directory,
(e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\UEI\PowerDNA\Firmware).
The directory contains the following:
• an MTTTY executable (serial terminal application)
• two sub-directories containing the firmware
Locate the firmware in the GigE system directory: this is the Firmware_PPC_1G
subdirectory and the rom image file with extension MOT.
