To apply a firmware update to a CANbus system component:

1. Insert the USB flash drive with the firmware update files into the ROS device.
   NOTE : Review the CANbus Firmware Download Example section for more information on the folder structure required for performing the update.

2. Use the USB Manager utility within the File Manager to import the CAN node updates. Refer to Chapter 7, File Manager, for additional assistance using the USB Manager.
