APC AP7900 Manual Do Utilizador

An 

automated self-extracting executable tool combines the firmware modules 
that you need to automate your upgrades on any supported Windows 
operating system

• The version of the tool on the APC Rack PDU Utility CD that came with 

your Rack PDU will upgrade your device to the latest AOS and 
application modules available when the CD was released.

• If a later firmware upgrade is available, you can obtain an updated 

version of the tool at no cost from the support section of the APC web 
site 

. At this Web page, find the latest 

firmware release for your APC product (in this case, your Rack PDU) 
and download the automated tool, not the individual firmware modules. 

If the AOS firmware module you already have is a 1.x.x version, the 
executable tool must perform two consecutive upgrades:

• The first upgrade is from version 1.x.x to the latest available 2.0.x 

version of the AOS firmware module.

• The second upgrade is from the 2.0.x version to the most recently 

released version of the AOS module.

The tool therefore contains firmware modules for both upgrades.

Each upgrade tool is specific to an APC product type. Do not use the tool 
from one product CD to upgrade firmware of a different APC product. If you 
use a version of the tool from the APC Web site, make sure that you use the 
upgrade tool that corresponds with your APC product type.
