ADDER AdderView Matrix User Manual page 45

The KVM Firmware Uploader dialog will be displayed:
b Click the Browse... button and select the upgrade file that is appropriate
to your AdderView Matrix unit:
AdderView Matrix AVM208:
AdderView Matrix AVM216:
where Vx.xx is the upgrade file version number.
The upgrade file details will be displayed within the dialog.
c Click the Query Unit button to confirm that communication is possible
with the AdderView Matrix and to establish its current firmware details.
If the application cannot contact the AdderView Matrix, recheck the
connection cable and click the Advanced... button to check that the
correct serial port is being used. Change the serial port within the
Advanced section, if necessary.
d To begin the upgrade process, click the Upload Now button. The upload
normally takes roughly fifteen minutes and the progress will be shown
within the dialog. Should you decide not to continue with the upload at
any stage, click the Abort button; response to this is usually immediate,
however, during an erase command, the upload will not be aborted until
the erase is complete (this may take a few seconds).
7 - Switch the UPGRADE key to the OFF position and cycle the power
Switch the switch 2 on the rear of the AdderView Matrix to the OFF position
and disconnect the power. When the power is re-applied the AdderView
Matrix will operate using the new firmware.
Issues to consider when performing flash upgrades
The upgrade program rewrites the AdderView Matrix firmware code. If the
upgrade process is interrupted then the AdderView Matrix will have invalid code
and will not be able to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the
upgrade process is always fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be
rectified by performing another upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted
accidentally then you should immediately repeat the upgrade process without
moving switch 2 from the upgrade (ON) position. Switch 2 forces the AdderView
Matrix into flash upgrade mode and prevents the upgraded code from being
run. Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results
and may damage your AdderView Matrix or computing equipment.
WARNING: Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable
results and may damage your AdderView Matrix or computing equipment.
