In order to upgrade the AR-NC3D Network Card, Version 1.26d of the FTP flash download 
software produced by the network card manufacturers (DPI) should be used. 
 
NOTE 
Before upgrading the firmware, obtain a current network card configuration page 

 
 

PROCEDURE 

 

1. 

Obtain the latest Flash Memory upgrade file and FTP download software program  
from either the Sharp Technical Web Site or “Sharp Eye” CD Disc 1. Place them  
into a convenient directory on your PC. 

 

2. 

Both the FTP download program and flash upgrade file will most likely be in a 
compressed format. These files will require uncompressing using Winzip or Pkunzip 
before the upgrade can be performed. 

 

3. 

The uncompressed flash file will be similar to the following:- 

 

Sha572ps.upd 

 

4. 

To install the FTP Download program run the “Set up.exe” program and then  
follow the installation wizard. 

 

5. 

Once installed, the FTP Download program can then run.  

 

 

6. 

The download can now be performed. Select “File” and then “Download” from the 
menu. You will then be asked for the upgrade flash file. Select the file and click OK. 

 

7. 

You are now asked for the IP Address that is set in the AR-NC3D network card of  
the copier. Enter the IP Address and click on OK. The download process will now 
begin. The download takes approximately 4 minutes. Once completed, all settings 
within the AR-NC3d network card will reset to factory default and will need to be re-
configure.
