6. Upgrading Software

Overview

lîÉêîáÉï

The MatrixPRO units built by Barco Folsom incorporate system software in a Flash

memory component. Flash memory allows easy software upgrades, without the need to

send the unit back to the factory.

The “loader” utility enables you to update the system’s Flash module with the latest revision

of software. The utility can be run from a computer with a hard drive (recommended) or a

floppy drive. Running the loader from a floppy drive is discouraged due to the slow speeds

associated with disk access.

connector on the other end.
