This page describes how to update the firmware any of the Quectel RM520N modems within the Opale 5G Robot.
In the following, it's assumed the Opale 5G modem is properly configured and accessible through IP.
Note that the procedure described in this page will be obsoleted when Modem firmware upgrade will be integrated in the Opale Robot firmware.
The Opale 5G Robot can include one or two RM520N (Among other possible configurations) modem as illustrated in the above picture.
In order to SAFELY upgrade any modems from the Opale 5G Robot, this procedure needs to be carefully followed
This procedure describes updating one RM520N at a time and the RM520N must be inserted into SLOT 0.
You will have to open the robot in order to access the RM520N modems.
Power off the robot and there are 4 screws to remove in order to open the robot.
Once the screws are removed be cautious while removing the cover as antennas cables are connected to the RM520N modems.
Once the robot is opened (and still powered off):
In any case, to properly execute the update procedure, only one RM520N should be inserted in the robot. |
Once the robot is ready with the RM520N modem to be updated inserted in SLOT 0, it can be powered on.
First, the new RM520N modem firmware has to be downloaded on the Robot using a SFTP client.
The picture above shows where the Quectel RM520N Update file has to be downloaded.
Once this is done, the RM520N Update file need to be unzipped with the following command:
