Most Tekron clocks support firmware upgrades using the serial port. The serial port can be used if the firmware upgrade has failed using the ethernet port.
The clocks have different serial connector types, which affect what firmware will be upgraded on the clock. The table below lists all Tekron products that are able to have firmware upgrades done through the serial port, the serial port type and what firmware it upgrades.
