Scanning Thin Client Firmware Files
The Scan Firmware feature helps you to discover the local or remote firmware files. There are two scenarios that
you need the help of this feature. The first scenario is that you choose to update clients with remote firmware files
rather than local imported ones. In this scenario, the local list of available firmware in ViewSonic Device Manager
may be not in sync with the remote list of firmware files on another computer where you choose to get firmware
files. The Scan Firmware feature can synchronize your local list with the remote one.
NOTE
• For instructions on how to congure your ViewSonic Device Manager to use remote
rmware les on another computer for client management, please refer to section
“3.2.8 Conguring Remote Deployment Settings” on page 29.
