Install new Software Option

Question

I have ordered a new FSL-Kxx software option for the FSL. How can I install the new

software option on my FSL?

Answer

First of all, we recommend that you install the latest FSL firmware. You can

download the firmware update from the product-specific R&S website. While

the firmware update is running, a dialog box will come up with the available

installation packages. Please make sure that you select the appropriate

FSL-Kxx application software in this dialog.

After the application software has been installed, you only have to enable the new

option via key code entry.

The key code is always delivered with the option. The key code is needed to

activate the new option.

To activate the option for your FSL, please proceed as follows:

- Make sure that the model and serial numbers of your FSL

(see SETUP => MORE => SYSTEM INFO => HARDWARE INFO)

match the model and serial numbers indicated on the option delivered.

- Go to SETUP => MORE => OPTION LICENSES => INSTALL OPTION.

- Enter the key code using the keypad.

- Press ENTER.

- If the key code is correct, the message 'option key valid' is displayed. If

the key code was wrong, the option is not installed.
