8.1Software Updating

The Model 250 software resides in Flash Memory and is updated via the projector's serial Port A. To perform an update, a disk containing the updated Boot Software (boot.hex) and/or System Software (zsys.hex) and a PC with Windows 3.1 (Windows 95/98 with Procomm Plus fax/modem software) is required to perform update.

Boot Manager Software and System Software are separate products. Each may be updated independently. The System Software will depend on a specific version of the Boot Manager. Refer to the System Software release bulletin for Boot Manager version dependencies.

To perform software upgrade:

1.Verify that the projector circuit breaker is off. Use a Null Modem cable to connect a PC to the projector’s Serial Port A (Terminal-In).

2.Start Windows 3.1.

3.Click on the terminal icon from the Accessories Directory.

4.From the Terminal menu, select Settings-Terminal Emulation and click on DEC-VT-100 (ANSI).

Select OK.

5.Under Settings, choose Terminal Preferences.

!Under Terminal Preferences the following selections are appropriate; Terminal Modes=Sound
