Update the Fixture Software
ETC recommends using UpdaterAtor software to manage software updates.
For more information on UpdaterAtor, see the UpdaterAtor Software Quick
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, except for ColorSource Spot jr fixtures. ColorSource
Spot jr fixtures can only update (and be updated by) other ColorSource Spot jr
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.
