Upgrade

Teradek releases firmware updates periodically that add new features, improve performance, and fix vulnerabilities. To update Ranger, you’ll need to load a firmware package into Launchpad.

  • Load from Web - If you have an Internet connection, click Load from Web to download the latest firmware package from Teradek’s servers.
  • Load from PC - Click Load from PC if you have already downloaded the firmware package you wish to use. For the latest firmware, visit: https://teradek.com/pages/downloads#ranger

Once the firmware is loaded, and information about the package is displayed, click Next to proceed with the upgrade. You will then be presented with a list of device components and whether or not they are scheduled to be updated, along with two options:

  • Start Upgrade - Update your Ranger device(s) with the latest firmware version.
  • Advanced Options - View detailed version information for each component and the firmware upgrade package components. The Advanced screen also allows users to select which components to upgrade.
