FIRMWARE UPDATE PARAMETERS
Firmware Updates
The firmware is special software that controls the operation of the LPS-20x. Periodically, ADC will make new
versions of the firmware available.
Install Firmware
Two options are available: Manual and Scheduled.
Manual
Click the Browse button and then locate a firmware file. Select it, and then click Install to upload it to the LPS-20x.
When installation is complete, the LPS-20x will automatically restart.
Scheduled
The LPS-20x can automatically retrieve and install firmware from a local or remote URL at preset times. By placing
LPS-20x firmware on a web or ftp server, you can automate the update process for multiple units.
Click the validate button to check if the URL you specified points to a valid firmware file.
When the update process is triggered, the LPS-20x retrieves the first 2K of the firmware file to determine if it is
different than the active version. If different (older or newer version), the entire firmware file is then downloaded and
installed. This enables you to return to other firmware version, if required.
Configuration settings are preserved during the update unless stated otherwise in the release notes for the firmware.
However, all active connections will be terminated. Customers will have to log in again after the LPS-20x restarts.
All configuration settings are preserved during the update unless stated otherwise in the release notes for
the firmware.
