Using your Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch

avoid using the server in ways that might interfere with the operations of the AutoUpdate application. If the update process is disturbed, the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch could become nonfunctional. If the update is interrupted, but the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch is still on, you should be able to restart the update (you may have to restart the AutoUpdate application).

When the update is started, a dialog pops up, displaying the file transfer progress for each sub-device, and for the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch, as a whole. If multiple devices have been selected, the dialog remains up and repeats the update process for each device. When the update is complete, the “Next” button will become active, allowing the user to complete the update.

NOTE: During the AutoUpdate file transfer process, the seven-segment LEDs on the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch will display “AU”, indicating AutoUpdate is in progress.

Updating your Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch Manually with a File from a Local Disk

If you select a manual update, the AutoUpdate application will still scan for devices that can be updated, but it will not look for updates on the website, so all of the device check boxes will be empty. The user must input the path to the target update file (manually, or using the browse button (the ellipsis)). If the file is valid, the “Next” button will become active. Click it to progress to the next screen.

NOTE: Invalid files include: files that are not made for AutoUpdate; AutoUpdate files for the incorrect device, language, etc.; or AutoUpdate files that are of the correct type, but do not contain newer software.

The “Advanced” button allows the user to manually force updates into the target device. AutoUpdate does minimal checking to determine whether the selected file is valid in this mode. Belkin does not recommend using Advanced Mode unless directed to do so by Belkin Technical Support. The Advanced button will
