Firmware Update

Normally, there is no need to update the firmware. You should only update the firmware if you are
having problems with the current firmware or the new firmware provides functionality you require that
are not available in your current version.
The latest firmware version can be downloaded and installed directly from the setup program or
installed manually by downloading the firmware file from

Updating the firmware is an easy and safe process, but you should take note that it is not possible to
update the firmware using SD cards with a capacity greater than 32GB unless they are formatted
to FAT32. The firmware update routine is a low-level routine called before the exFAT file system is
loaded. The low-level routine only supports the FAT32 file system.
Automatic Firmware Update
Use mSetup (Tools) to automatically update the firmware. This is by far the easiest method.
Manual Firmware Update

There are two methods with which you can update the firmware.
Method 1 without pressing any buttons:
