2.3.5 PRISMAsync Firmware Updates

It is recommended that a technician use a specific kind of USB stick to upgrade or
restore the PRISMAsync controller firmware. The USB stick is NOT included in the
PRISMAsync box.
The USB stick used for upgrading the controller firmware must adhere to specific
technical requirements. For the USB stick's technical requirements, see
Stick," on p. 62.
IMPORTANT
• Before downloading new firmware on the USB stick, the USB stick must be
formatted (all contents on the stick erased). During the firmware update process,
the current firmware on the PRISMAsync controller is erased and replaced by
the newly installed firmware. Therefore, it is highly recommended that the
technician backup the PRISMAsync system settings and licenses on the USB
key first. Then, after the firmware is updated (using the USB stick), the installed
licenses and settings can be restored using the USB key.
• Once the USB stick has been used to update firmware on the PRISMAsync
controller, it cannot be used again until the format process is repeated.
• The USB key and USB stick should not be used interchangeably.
• Using a USB stick that does not meet the specific technical requirements, may
result in an error when backing up the system settings or an error when installing
firmware.
