9.11.2 Updating the instrument software

The following instructions show how to proceed for updating the instrument software

version on the instrument.

Updating the instrument software

We recommend that you use the latest software version available on the product page

at www.rohde-schwarz.com/firmware/lcx.

To install a new software version:

1. Download the latest version of the R&S LCX software from the Rohde & Schwarz

website.

2. Unpack the compressed software *.zip file if it does not unpack during download

automatically.

3. Save the file in the root directory of the USB memory stick.

4. Connect the USB memory stick to the USB interface at the front panel of the

R&S LCX.

5. Press the [settings] key at the front panel.

6. In the "Device" tab, select "Update Device".

7. Select the "USB1A" memory.

The R&S LCX scans the USB memory device for software file types. It indicates

the versions of the currently installed and the latest available firmware, including

date and build information.

8. Select the software version you want to install.

9. Select "Update".

The software update starts.

Note: Interrupting the power supply during the firmware update only causes the

update to fail. After the update, the R&S LCX automatically rebots and confirms

with "Success" or "Failed".

However, we recommend that you do not power off the instrument until the update

is completed.

When completed, the R&S LCX confirms that it is ready for operation.
