Firmware updates
Firmware updates will be available on the ROTRONIC website for downloading. Firmware files are given a
name that shows both to which device the file applies and the version number of the firmware. All firmware
files have the extension HEX. Procedure for updating the firmware:
Use the appropriate model of service cable (see Maintenance > Service Cable) to connect the
service connector of the HF7 to a USB port of a PC with the ROTRONIC HW4 software installed.
Note that the ROTRONIC USB driver must be installed on the PC as explained in the HW4 manual
E-M-HW4v3-Main.
Copy the firmware update file from the ROTRONIC website to the PC.
Start HW4 software on the PC and search for the HF7 (HW4 Main Menu Bar > Devices and Groups
> Search for USB Masters).
After finding the HF7, expand the device tree to see the HF7 functions. Select Device Manager. In
the Device Manager menu bar select Tools > Firmware Update. For instructions see document
