Chapter 3: Upgrades

From time to time as modifications are made to the Analyzer, it is necessary to
update the Chief for optimal performance. These changes require that you be
familiar with the procedures for updating the three portions of the Analyzer: the
software, the firmware, and the BusEngine. If you haven’t already done so, you
may also want to upgrade from USB Chief to Chief Plus so that you can use your
Analyzer to generate traffic.

You can check the version of USB Chief you are running by selecting About USB
Chief
from the Help menu.
