FIRMWARE UPDATE PROCEDURE
UCD Configuration Utility is used to load an updated firmware to the device. As an option,
UCD Configuration Utility enables the user to select the operation roles present in the
UCD-400 unit. The utility configures a firmware set for the selected operation roles and
programs the firmware set to the device. Please contact Unigraf for details.
Updating from Earlier FW Versions
UCD Firmware versions earlier than 1.8.52 (Pls see Help > About) do not support the
procedure described here. Please update the FW first to version 1.8.52. Please follow
instructions in
