UPGRADING THE BGAN TERMINAL SOFTWARE
Software updates for the RF-7800B BGAN Terminals can be accessed from the Harris Premier website:
https://tcpremier.harris.com/
.
The new embedded software will come with Harris created Microsoft Windows application called the BGAN
Terminal Upgrader. This application simplifies installing new BGAN Terminal software.
A .zip file will be provided with all files to upgrade the terminal. Unzip the .zip file into a new directory on the
computer's drive. Navigate to that folder and verify that the file name beginning with "bganx" has a version number
that matches the desired version for the upgrade (i.e. Version 5.1.1.5 will be bganx_5_1_1_5.bin). If this does not
match, obtain the correct files from the Harris Premier website.
NOTE
When supporting multiple versions of Harris BGAN Terminal
software, do not copy new binary files into an existing
Upgrade Application directory. Only one copy/version of each
binary file may be in the folder or the Upgrade Application
may not be able to perform a successful upgrade. It is
suggested to create a new directory for each new version of
BGAN Terminal Software.
NOTE
Do not rename files in the upgrade directory or the Upgrade
Application may not be able to perform a successful upgrade.
NOTE
The following requirements must be met:
•
Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0
Redistributable Package (x86) or later is installed on
the computer. The link may be found at:
http://www.microsoft.com/net.
•

dynamically (usually true on most computers).

enabled (is enabled by default).
