New Installation of the CMU Software
A software update can be performed in the CMU using the PCMCIA INTERFACE or the FLOPPY DISK
DRIVE (R&S CMU -U61).
One of these is always installed in the R&S CMU (compulsory option).
The software update is carried out in the R&S CMU using the VersionManager. This tool enables
convenient installation, deletion and activation of different software versions. It also permits to perform a
firmware update of modules following module replacement (see chapter 2, Automatic Adjustment).
The R&S CMU is always supplied with the latest software version including the version manager.
Note: The newest R&S CMU software is also available at the R&S Lotus Notes Service Board.
Software Update via PCMCIA INTERFACE
For the PCMCIA INTERFACE, two drive slots are provided. Both drive slots can be used for the
software update; the R&S CMU automatically searches for an installation medium in both slots. The
flash disks and the hard disk (type 3) feature a small groove on one side; the disks are to be inserted
into the drive slot with the groove pointing upwards.
Note: The drive designation is as follows: right drive slot (slot 0) is drive D: left drive slot (slot 1) is
drive E:. Hard disks can only be inserted into the right drive slot (Slot 0; drive D:).
To perform the software update, the instrument must be switched off, then the software update flash
disk or hard disk must be inserted into the PCMCIA INTERFACE on the instrument and the instrument
switched on. If necessary, further update flash disks must be inserted one after the other. Please follow
the hints in the VersionManager.
Software Update via FLOPPY DISK DRIVE
To perform the software update, the instrument must be switched off, then the first software update
floppy ('3.5') must be inserted into the FLOPPY DISK DRIVE of the instrument and the instrument
switched on.
Then the further update floppies must be inserted one after the other. Please follow the hints in the
VersionManager.
