  • Page 35: Chapter 3. Updating Firmware

    TO ENSURE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO OPERATE THE UNIT WITH ITS LATEST AVAILABLE FIRMWARE. The CSAT-5060 stores its firmware internally in flash memory, which simplifies the firmware updating process. The firmware update, once acquired, can be transferred from an external user PC once connectivity has been established with the CSAT-5060.
