Updating the fixture software

ETC recommends using UpdaterAtor software to manage software updates.
For more information on UpdaterAtor, see the
Guide
, which you can download for free from etcconnect.com.
When you add a ColorSource fixture running a newer software version or
update a ColorSource fixture to a newer software version using UpdaterAtor,
you can use that fixture to push the newer software version to all connected
ColorSource fixtures.
You can push newer software versions from a connected fixture only on
ColorSource fixtures running software v1.3.0 or newer. Use UpdaterAtor to
update individual fixtures running versions older than v1.3.0.
