3 Installing WES7 Firmware
This chapter includes the requirements and procedures you need to install and use Wyse USB Firmware Tool to update your thin client to WES7 firmware.
TIP: The purpose of the USB Firmware Tool is to configure a bootable USB key for device firmware. In the following procedures, you will create a configured USB key containing the firmware contents that you need, and then boot from this configured USB key on appropriate product and flash size devices to push the contents of the USB key onto these target devices.
EXTREEMLY IMPORTANT: You must perform the steps to create and use the configured USB key on each thin client as noted. You cannot completely convert one thin client and then use the USB Firmware Tool to pull and push that image to your other thin clients.
