9.2 Software update
Software for ILite tiles
Software is stored on four different locations in the ILite tile:
1.
On the FPGA of the re-sync unit : firmware re-sync unit (A).
2.
On the FPGA of the controller unit : firmware controller (B).
3.
On the FPGA of the LED driver (or second FPGA on the controller unit in case of ILite XP versions) : firmware driver (C).
4.
On the CPU of the controller unit : program and boot software (µP).
Software location of the ILite tile:
Data path
Serial comm.

Flash software like firmware re-sync unit, firmware controller, firmware driver and program code can be updated in the field if required.
CPU boot software can not be upgraded (only factory programmable). New releases of flash software are available on the "Partner
Zone" of the Barco web site www.barco.com. Refer to the user guide of the Director toolset for instructions on reading out the version
of flash software and for uploading new versions.
