3 How to Perform a Firmware Upgrade
Follow these steps to download new firmware to an Ascom ACU.
1. Plug the ACU into the PC.
2. Launch the Firmware Upgrade Tool from the Start menu by navigating
to Ascom → TEMS Products → TEMS Investigation <ver. no.> →

Alternatively, go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Ascom\TEMS
Products\TEMS Investigation <ver. no.>\Application and run the file
AscomAcuFirmwareUpgradeTool.exe.
3. Click the Re-init All Devices button (4). This will initialize the
connected ACU, if it is not initialized already, and display the installed
firmware versions.
4. Click the Browse button (2) and browse to the folder where the latest
firmware file is located (file extension .acur2). Select the firmware that
you want to download to the ACU.
A message “Firmware Extraction Successful!” will be displayed in the
main window area (3) provided that the firmware is successfully
extracted from the .acur2 file. Await this message before proceeding.
The file extension will also automatically change to .m00 if the
extraction was successful, as shown in the screenshot.
5. Click the Start Download button (5). The firmware upgrade is now
performed, and a summary of it is reported in the main area of the
window (3).
6. The ACMs will be automatically reset if (6) is checked. Otherwise, you
will be prompted to do a manual reset.
