Updating Insight 2x software
Update procedure
Insight 2x software updates are distributed on diskette. Follow these
steps to update the software in your Insight 2x console. Make sure the
diskette is the correct one for your console.
1. Installing new console software clears all system memory. Please
save your current show!
2. Turn the console off.
3. Insert the console software diskette into your console’s diskette
drive.
4. Turn the console back on. The console displays the boot screen and
automatically installs the software. This process takes approximately
one minute. The console displays the following messages as the
installation progresses: Loading, Erasing Flash, Writing Flash. Wait
until the Stage display appears.
5. Press [Setup] to confirm that the new software has been successfully
installed. The current software version is displayed in the lower right
corner of the display. This version number should match the number
on the diskette. If it does not, repeat the procedure.
6. Press [4] [Enter] [S1], Reset System. The update is complete.
Software installation note
In ETCNet networked systems where an Insight 2x console is connected
to Remote Interfaces and/or Remote Video Interfaces, both the console
and the remote device must have the same version software installed. For
instructions for upgrading remote device software, see Installing remote
unit software on page 314.
If you have any questions or experience difficulties while upgrading,
please call ETC’s Technical Services department at 800/775-4382.
