Firmware updates are available at www.rletech.com . Download the appropriate firmware to an
accessible location on a PC connected to the same Local Area Network (LAN) as the LD1500.
A.1. Update the Flash Firmware Via Web Interface/
TFTP
Uploading firmware via TFTP requires a TFTP Client. It may be possible to download a free
license TFTP Client from the Internet. Consult your IT department to determine a compatible
client program.
Before updating the firmware, the firmware Flash application must be exited and then erased.

2 From the System Management menu, click on the “Exit to Bootloader” button. You must
have write access to the unit in order to do this. The LD1500 will exit the application and
display a Bootloader web page.
3 3. Click on the “Erase Flash” button. You will be prompted for a username and password.
After entering the username and password, the Flash application will be erased.
Note To erase the flash, a special username and password are required. The username is
ld1500 (the “l” and “d” are lowercase), and the password is rle2tech.
4 Verify that your PC and the LD1500 are on the same subnetwork (LAN).
5 Open your TFTP client. Configure the client as follows.
a Host = LD1500 IP Address (10.0.0.188, for example)
