Extron electronic 325 manual Uploading the upgrade to the controller codec, Upgrade

Page 60

NOTES: The activate and commit stages reboot the controller. This results in two

considerations:

The upgrade file in the temporary storage area of the controller codec is

erased. Extron recommends that you:

Prepare all devices first (the upgrade page displays the

READYTOACTIVATE message.

Then activate the upgrade on each device (the upgrade page displays

the READYTOCOMMIT message), starting with the controller VNC 325.

If you inadvertently activate the upgrade in the controller codec before all devices are prepared, upload the file again (see below).

There is a temporary loss of the network interface. Wait 30 seconds to allow the VNC 325 to reboot, then refresh the browser.

Perform the activate stage on the controller codec first to ensure that the new firmware controls the upgrade of the remaining devices. Extron recommends that you activate all devices (the upgrade page displays the READYTOCOMMIT message) before committing to the controller upgrade.

Uploading the upgrade to the controller codec

Upload the file to a temporary storage area on the controller VNC 325 in accordance with the procedure below. From this location, it can be installed on all codecs in the system.

1.Login to the network interface (see “Startup and Login“ in the “Installation and Setup” section).

2.On the device list page, click anywhere on the row (except the Delete column) for the controlling VNC 325 to select that codec to receive the firmware upload (A on figure 43).
