Firmware File Types (.prg) and (.exe)
Using firmware with an .exe extension FILENAME.exe is convenient. However, firmware with the .exe
extension may not be available in all situations. Download methods described in Table 19 which require
the .prg extension, FILENAME.prg, is required (e.g., Windows Drivers and Web Page).
The FILENAME.prg file can be extracted from the FILENAME.exe file by executing the command in a
Windows Command Prompt session:
FILENAME<Enter>
Or by running the program in the GUI intereface (double clicking the icon in a folder explorer).
This will extract the FILENAME.prg file in the same directory where FILENAME.exe was executed. For
example, executing 123456.exe in the directory C:\download will generate a file C:\download\123456.prg.
Be sure to copy the FILENAME.exe file to your computer's local drive before
