Upgrading the BIOS

This section describes how to upgrade the BIOS. However, please note that it is easy to permanently damage

the computer when upgrading the BIOS. We strongly recommend that you contact Moxa’s technical support

staff for assistance in order to obtain all necessary tools and the most current advice before attempting to

upgrade the BIOS on any Moxa device.

Step 1: Create a Bootable USB Disk

Before upgrading the BIOS every user should first create a bootable USB RAM drive as a system rescue device.

A useful software suite for building USB RAM drives can be found by searching for Rufus, which can then be

downloaded and used to create a bootable RAM drive. Take the following steps to create a bootable USB disk

by using Rufus.
