PC (must be running Windows®) and to the serial download connector
("Components" on page 17) on the rear panel of the HP KVM Server
Console Switch.
2. Go to the folder where the firmware files are saved and run the
WUpDateHP.exe file.

the updates have been loaded. When the firmware is updated, the following
message indicating "Update Complete" is displayed.
