How to update Studer equipment firmware

This article takes a look how to correctly update Studer equipment firmware

Overview:

It is occasionally necessary to update the firmware of Studer components. The process is straight forward but cannot be done remotely - software upgrades must be done locally /on site.

Updates on a system are performed with an RCC-02/03 device. Additionally, if an Xcom-232i (GSM/LAN) device is present, it will require an additional firmware update step.

 

How to update with RCC-02/03:

  1. Remove the SD Card from the RCC-02/03:



  2. Insert SD Card into your computer:

 

3. Download the last software version “Xtender System Update (xxxx)” from

https://www.studer-innotec.com/en/downloads/ and then open Software and Updates.

4. Extract the folder “02” just downloaded.

5. Delete any previous / old “02” folders from the SD Card:

6. Copy the new one into your SD Card

7. Remove the SD Card from your computer

8. Insert the card back into your RCC-02/03

9. The RCC-02/03 will ask if you would like to make the update

10. Select YES. The update will start. Don’t touch the system.

 

Updating with Xcom-LAN/GSM:

Follow the same procedure as described above; the only difference is the update will start automatically.
