Upgrading Firmware

Benefits of upgrading firmware

Upgrading the firmware on the VCPS has the following benefits:

• New firmware has the latest bug fixes and performance improvements.

• New features become available for immediate use.

• Keeping the firmware versions consistent across your network ensures

that all VCPSs support the same features in the same manner.

Firmware files (VCPS)

A firmware version for the VCPS uses the following basic format:

apc_hwx_vcps_version_build.bin

– apc: Indicates that this is an APC file.

– hwx: Identifies the version of the VCPS hardware that will run this

binary file.

– vcps: Identifies the application as being for the VCPS.

– version: The version number of the application file. For example, a

code of 100 would indicate version 1.0.0.

– build: The build number of the application file. For example, a

code of 623 would indicate build number 623.

– bin: Indicates that this is a binary firmware image.
