version, you are
encouraged to install it
directly. If you must step
through the installation of
more than one version,
notes will be available
advising you of the proper sequence.
Under the heading for each firmware version will be a series of files for download. A
new version of the Web GUI interface may be made available with enhanced features
as well as new .bin files for the transmitter and receiver. Other available files may
include the User Guide or special version-specific documentation.
When updating firmware, the first step is to download the .rfs and .bin files to a
computer that is connected to the WiBotic transmitter via an Ethernet cable. The
filenames will be similar to the following:
• WEB.RFS – the Web GUI update that is loaded onto the Transmitter
• rx-m4-ota.bin – the “rx” indicates this is the firmware file for the Onboard
Charger/Receiver
• tx-m7-ota.bin – the “tx” indicates this is the firmware file for the Transmitter
Upload Button
Once the files reside on the connected computer, the next step is to upload them to the
Transmitter. To begin this process, first navigate to the “Update” menu page.
The top of the Update page contains a section for
choosing and uploading files to the transmitter. Use
the “Choose File” button to individually select each of
the three firmware files above and then click “Upload”
to load them onto the Transmitter’s SD card. A yellow
status bar and green check mark will indicate upload
progress and completion.
