.bdl files, there is no guarantee which .bdl file will be chosen.
2.In a web browser, go to the following website to select the upgrade you need:
3.Once you have found the upgrade, save the .bdl file to the root directory of the thumb drive.
Note: Save the .bdl file to the root directory of the thumb drive so the upgrade can install properly.
4.Clear the Conext ComBox internal memory. See “Clearing the Internal Firmware Memory”.
Connect the thumb drive to the USB port labeled Host on the top front of the Conext ComBox.
The firmware upgrade begins automatically.
5.Watch the indicator LEDs on the Conext ComBox. When the Xanbus LED goes on, it is now okay to remove the thumb drive.
As the upgrade progresses the Power LED flashes. The other LEDs go on to indicate the upgrade process. This can take several minutes depending on the size of the upgrade.
6.When the upgrade is complete, the Power LED is on to indicate that the Conext ComBox is ready.
7.Clear your computer’s web browser cache after the upgrade before you log back in to the Conext ComBox’s web user interface.
