13.26 How do I do a firmware update, and can it be
prevented?
You can update the firmware using the PME Update program. With the pro­
gram, you can also simultaneously transfer a new firmware version to several
devices. To prevent a conflict with ongoing processing (no measurements or
analyses can take place during an update), from firmware version 2.22 or
higher you can stipulate that firmware updates should go ahead only if manu­
ally approved on the device (F Update: Permitted!), see General settings
(Basic settings).

13.26.1Downloading the firmware update

Download the new firmware from the following address:
www.hbm.com -> Services & Support -> Downloads -> Firmware & Software
When you have started the PME Assistant and the connected devices have
been scanned, you will see the firmware version used by your device in the
Vers. column of the Device list. If necessary, open the list to see the correct
device (ID).
