4.8.1.1 Update System Software from Network
The following steps describe how to update your RS20i software through the internet.
1. Using the Select Update Source drop-down list, choose Main Server or Secondary Server. Both
selections provide the same list of available software releases. The most recent will always be at
the top of the list.
Note: Your RS20i must already have an active internet connection in order to access
the software update list through the internet. If you receive a message "failed to
get file list" your internet connection is not working and the RS20i is unable to
connect with the server.
2. Use the Volume Control knob to highlight the desired software version.
The current version of software loaded on the RS20i is displayed under Current on the right side
of the screen. The highlighted software version, will display under Selected on the right side of
the screen. Select the Details button to show the timestamp for the selected update.
3. Once the desired version is confirmed, press the Start Update button
Note: If you select an older version of software than is currently loaded on the RS20i,
you will receive a warning message and be asked to verify that you wish to
continue.
Connection will take place automatically, and the following screen will appear.
Depending upon your connection speed, downloading, decompressing, and installing files could take
anywhere from 10 minutes to less than a few minutes to complete. After decompressing the file, the
system checks if the software is different than the current version. If it is the same version then a pop-up
message indicates that the software update is not required. In that case, press OK to return to the menus.
Otherwise, the RS20i automatically reboots to continue the software update process, including updating
firmware on various boards. When that completes, the system returns to the Home screen.
4.8.1.2 Update System Software from USB Device
You may update the software through a USB drive.
1. First, obtain the software update file from the Datasat Digital Entertainment web page at
www.datasatdigital.com
2. Copy the extracted .upd file to the USB drive root directory.
Note: The filename of the extracted file must not be changed in order to be correctly
identified by the RS20i.
