KH1508i / KH1516i Mainboard Upgrade

New firmware upgrade packages are posted on our website as they become available. Check the website regularly to find the latest packages and information relating to them. This chapter explains how to upgrade the KH1508i / KH1516i’s mainboard firmware.

Note: When you upgrade the mainboard firmware, you must upgrade the browser firmware to the latest version (if it isn’t already at the latest version). Upgrading the browser firmware is described on page 56.

Before You Begin

To prepare for the firmware upgrade, do the following:

1.From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation go to our website and choose the model name that relates to your device to get a list of available firmware upgrade files.

2.Choose the mainboard firmware upgrade file and download it to your computer. It will have a name like kh1508i-1516i_main_v.xxxx.exe(where xxxx stands for the version number). The higher the number the newer the file.

3.Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable (provided with this unit), to connect a COM port on your computer to the Firmware Upgrade Port of the KH1508i / KH1516i.
