Before updating the firmware of a system, check the version to determine which
update method to use.
PowerDNA Explorer, a GUI-based troubleshooting application provided with the

Plug the 24 VDC power supply into the wall power outlet with the cable
provided, and connect the 24 VDC 4-pin cable into power connector of
the RACK.
PC or network (e.g., host PC Ethernet port, switch).
From the Windows desktop menu, navigate to
Start >> Programs >> UEI >> PowerDNA >> PowerDNA Explorer

Note the version that is given in the FW Ver field (Figure 4-8).
Figure 4-8. Displaying the Version of Your Firmware
If the FW Ver has a yellow triangle with an exclamation point next to it (see figure
above), you have a mismatch between the firmware installed on your RACK
system and the software version on your host PC. If you see this warning, UEI
highly recommends that you update your firmware to match your software (or
software to match your firmware). Firmware version mismatches can result in
unexpected operation.
If the FW Ver shows a version of 2.x.x.x, 3.x.x.x, or 4.x.x.x, follow the firmware
update instructions on the following pages.
For other versions of firmware, (i.e. 1.x.x.x), refer to the user manual on the CD
that accompanied your device when you purchased it.
