Firmware Update

Overview

The MCU (Main Control Unit) board flash-memory contains the software for this machine. To upgrade the
software, one SD card is required.
• Always turn the main power switch off before you insert or remove an SD card.
• Keep the main switch on during software installation.
• Store and handle SD cards carefully to protect them from heat, humidity, and sunlight.

Updating Firmware

Before You Begin
• The modules must be updated one at a time. This means you must turn the machine power off/on after
updating one module. More than one module cannot be selected for updating at the same time.
• If a network cable is connected to the machine it must be disconnected. This prevents an incoming job
from interfering with an update in progress.
• Never switch the machine off while a firmware update is in progress.
Inserting the SD Card
1. Disconnect the network cable if one is attached.
2. Turn the main power switch off.
3. Remove the SD slot cover [1].
