Remote firmware updates

You can use XCTU to perform firmware updates on remote modules because once you add a remote module to XCTU's device list, the update process is exactly the same whether you are updating a local module or a remote module. To perform a remote firmware update, the local module must be working in API or API escaped operating mode.

Remote firmware updates can be performed on the following radio modules:

Note If something goes wrong during an over-the-air firmware update on a remote module—for example, communication is lost because the remote device is disconnected—you must perform a manual recovery. See Recover a radio module.
