5. Operation and Configuration
5.4.5 Software update
Software updates can be easily installed on the furnace by means of a USB stick. A USB stick which contains the current
software file (e.g. EP 5010 G2_V1.10.iv) is required for the update. The software version on the USB stick must be higher
than the one installed on the furnace (see Selection – Information).
The free software updates for Programat furnaces are available from www.ivoclarvivadent.com/downloadcenter.
Back-up your data before performing a software update.
A software update requires only few steps:
1. Open the Software Update menu.
Scroll to page 4 in the home screen and press the [Software Update]
button.
2. Conduct the software update.
If the USB stick with the software file is already connected, the
furnace automatically searches for a valid software file. If the USB
stick has not yet been connected with the furnace, do so now.
Press the [Execute] button.
3. The status bar shows the progress of the update.
4. Complete the software update.
The following message is displayed:
Software update successful
Software update failed
The furnace has to be switched off and on again by means of the mains switch at the rear of the furnace to
complete the software update.
Important information
Please note that modified Ivoclar Vivadent programs may be overwritten during a software update. Individual
programs are not affected and will not be overwritten.
