7.3 Update firmware
7.3.1 Update firmware overview
Firmware/BIOS updates are regularly available for your device. You can download these from
the Internet.
Risk of irretrievable loss of data
After a firmwa
re/BIOS update all firmware settings are deleted. This can put the system in an
undefined state. The consequence might be damage to the device or system.
Before updating your firmware, back up the current firmware settings by writing them to a
file. You can find information on this under ""Exit" tab (Page 78)".
