4. Check the Firmware
622C
When first released in 2012, there were two changes in the firmware. One (Sep. 2012) fixed a
transmitter mode problem when using 1D series bodies. The other a little later matched a hardware
change.
The firmware has been stable since then, and the 622C does not have a user-upgrade facility, so
future upgrades are unlikely.
C-TX
Firmware in the C-TX can be updated by the user. Ensure that the unit’s Firmware is the latest
version.
• A computer-to-USB 2.0 Mini-B cable (e.g.Canon USB cable) is required.
• A Windows computer platform is required.
• See page 43 for full details for downloading and installing firmware updates.
