N General
The IC-7600’s firmware can be updated if desired. By
updating the firmware, new function(s) can be added
and the improvement of performance parameters can
be obtained.
2 methods of firmware update are available: one uses
the USB-Memory, and the other uses a PC. You can
choose either methods according to your PC capabil-
ities.
• When only one PC connected to the Internet is
available
±
Refer to N Preparation (p. ??) and N Firmware
update
— USB-Memory
(p. ??)
• When two or more PCs connected to the Internet
are available and they are connected to a LAN
(Local Area Network)
±
Refer to N Preparation
(p. ??)
and either
N Firmware update— PC
(p. ??)
or N Firmware
update— USB-Memory
(p. ??)
Ask your dealer or distributor about how to update the
firmware if you have no PC.
N Caution
R CAUTION!: NEVER turn the transceiver power
OFF while updating the firmware.
You can turn the transceiver power OFF only when
the transceiver displays that rebooting is required.
If you turn the transceiver power OFF, or if a power
failure occurs during updating, the transceiver firm-
ware will be corrupted and you will have to send the
transceiver back to the nearest Icom distributor for
repair. This type of repair is out of warranty even if
the warranty period is still valid.
Recommendation!
Backing up the settings and/or memory contents to
the USB-Memory before starting the firmware update
is recommended.
Settings and/or memory contents will be lost or
returned to default settings when the firmware update
is performed.
At least one available USB (2.0 or 1.1) port is
required to copy the downloaded firmware file (USB
hub may be required).
The USB hub is not supplied by Icom.
Ask your PC dealer about a USB for details.
