What power supplies are required for firmware updates and setup pre-installation?

I'd like to update the firmware of a ccgx, Quattro and mppt before going to site for the installation, possibly also ESS setup.

What's needed in terms of DC power supply for the ccgx and AC for the Quattro?


Thanks

Quattro:

-eiter connect a battery, or AC input, both options work fine (I usually just wire AC to it)


CCGX:

-a power supply (can be anything, I usually use a bench supply, but a small 12V power supply works also), and an internet connection to download firmware / setup VRM etc.

MPPT:

-12V power supply suffices, but I usually update them on site, with Victron connect + usb-ve-direct cable and laptop. if no internet on site: make sure you let victron-connect updat itself beforehand.
