Before updating the firmware, the following points must be observed:
 Each 'Panel' must individually be update with the firmware.
 Data backup
When the firmware is updated, the configuration data, event memories and alarm counter
o
value are deleted. Load the configuration data and event memories before updating the
configuration tool.
 Converting the configuration data
Updating the firmware required the configuration data to be converted if the new firmware
o
and existing configuration are not compatible with one another.
 BDV Compatibility
The BDVs are compatible when the major and the minor versions are identical. The Bug
o
fix version is not relevant for the compatibility.
 The procedure for updating the firmware depends on the 'Panel' configuration. A 'Panel' can
be configured as follow:
Standalone 'Panel'
o
SAFEDLINK 'Panel'
o
Router-'Panel', Ethernet 'Panel'
o
 Windows firewall setting
To connect the PC to the 'Panel', the Windows firewall settings must be changed if
o
possible.
 After the main CPU is updated, the Network 'Panels' must be initialized.
 Once the firmware has been updated, the 'Panel' configuration must be loaded to the
configuration tool in order to update the LRC data to the current firmware status.
