As of 9/28/2018, the latest firmware is V2.05 Build 1217. This firmware is relevant for both the EM4800 and E4800.
A Schneider firmware downloader was developed as an easy method to upgrade the meters. Below you can find the firmware file, the Schneider firmware loader. The tool does not require installation. It can run simply by unpacking the ".zip into a folder of your choice. Also attached is a very brief and preliminary version of an instruction document (Schneider_firmware_Loader.pdf).
