Installing Firmware

This chapter includes the requirements and procedures you need to install and use
Wyse USB Firmware Tool to update your thin client to the firmware you need.
TIP: The purpose of the USB Firmware Tool is to configure a bootable USB key for
device firmware. In the following procedures, you will create a configured USB key
containing the firmware contents that you need, and then boot from this configured
USB key on appropriate product and flash size devices to push the contents of the USB
key onto these target devices (containing your upgraded flash).
EXTREEMLY IMPORTANT: You must perform the steps to create and use the
configured USB key on each thin client as noted. You cannot completely convert one
thin client and then use the USB Firmware Tool to pull and push that image to your
other thin clients.
