■ Updating the Rio firmware
This section explains how to update the Rio firmware.
Before you start updating the firmware, decompress the downloaded compressed file. Place
“RIO_PROG.bin,” “updatev2.exe” and “update.ini in the same folder.
For information about messages displayed by the Rio firmware update program, refer to “
Error Message List (R
Series Update Program V2)” at the end of this guide.
・ Before starting the update program, quit all other programs. While the update is in progress, do not start any
other programs or switch between windows.
・ If your computer enters Sleep or Energy Save mode, data transfer to the device may stop. Therefore, you should
disable these functions to prevent this from happening. We also recommend that you do not use any screen saver or
similar background programs.
