Firmware Update Using Update32 Tool

First steps
● Power off the R&S EB500. It has to be switched on later in the update procedure.
● Make sure the R&S EB500 and the PC running the "Update32" tool are con-
nected either directly using a LAN cable or through the same network switch/
hub. It is NOT recommended that the PC and the R&S EB500 be connected
across different routers when performing firmware update with "Update32"
because special network packets required by the process may be discarded by
the router.
● Run the "Update32" tool by clicking on Firmware Update Program. Allow
access if there are security warnings. Below is a screenshot of the Update32
application.
