Upgrade Using the Mac Version Utility

Prepare your KVM Switch and the Mac Host

Step 1.

Ensure that the power adapter is connected to the KVM Switch. Check to make sure that the KVM cables for port 1 remain connected to the KVM Switch. The monitor, mouse, and keyboard should be disconnected from the console port of the KVM Switch and plugged in directly to the host computer. The power supply should also remain connected to the KVM Switch.

Step 2.

Power on the Mac host and copy/download the firmware-upgrade utility, “Belkin Soho.pkg”, and the firmware-upgrade file, “.blk”, to it.
