iPATH Agility Controller
4.4.4.2 Upgrading Agility firmware globally
This method allows the iPATH Agility Controller admin user to upgrade firmware on receivers and transmitters, wherever they are
located.
1 Use the "Upload New TX/RX Firmware" section to place new transmitter and/or receiver firmware file(s) onto the iPATH Agility
Controller. Once uploaded, the stored firmware files are listed within the relevant "Available firmware" drop-down boxes within
the sections below.
2 Within the "Install Firmware onto Devices" section, choose the Device Version (Agility standard or dual model), Device Type
(RX or TX) and Firmware Type (Main or Backup copies).
3 Click the Available firmware drop-down box and select the required new firmware version.
4 Click the "Install" button to apply the chosen firmware to the devices.
5 On the right side of the list, you can:
• Individually select the devices to which the firmware upgrade will be applied by checking the "Upgrade" boxes next to each
device, or
• Use the "Upgrade All" option to apply firmware globally to all devices.
• You are recommended to tick the "Reboot First" (or "Reboot All First" when using the "Upgrade All" option).
6 Click the "Upgrade Selected..." button to create a queue of devices to be upgraded. If there are many devices to upgrade, this
may take some time.
The status of devices during the upgrade process should be shown in near-real time on the receivers/transmitters pages and on
the device's own page. The page will show whether the device is still in the queue to be upgraded or if it is in the process of
rebooting with the new firmware. Note that the process of applying firmware to a device and enacting a reboot takes several
minutes to complete.
4.4.5 Dashboard > Active Connections Page
Shows only connections that are currently active within the iPATH Agility Controller network. Please refer to the Connection Log
page section below.
4.4.6 Dashboard > Connection Log Page
Shows all connections that have occurred within the iPATH Agility Controller network. The most recent connections are shown at
the top, and the log is paginated (the number of rows per page can be set from the Dashboard > Settings page). The log can be
filtered to show all connections, or only currently active connections. Current connections have no "end time" and a disconnect
icon ( ).
The "Audio Broadcast IP" and "Video Broadcast IP" columns show whether the audio and video are being sent directly from the
transmitter to the receiver or broadcast to a multicast group. Direct links are denoted by the receiver's IP address only; whereas
multicast broadcasts are indicated by the multicast icon (
range specified within the "Multicast IP Address" option of the Dashboard > Settings page).
Actions that you can take within this page include:
• Hover the mouse over the receiver, user or channel names to show more information about each item.
• Hover the mouse over the five "Info" icons to see descriptions (audio on/off; video on/off; USB on/off; shared/exclusive mode;
serial on/off).
• Click to end a connection between a receiver and a channel.
