This document provides instructions for updating the Rigol RSA3000 (excluding the RSA3000E) and RSA5000 series spectrum analyzers using the firmware package included in the "RSA3000_RSA5000(ARM)_Firmware_Update" file.

[Notices]

    - Before proceeding, please read the "RSA3000_RSA5000 Release Notes.txt" file for detailed information about the firmware update.
