Upgrading Onboard Firmware - Dalsa PC2-CamLink User Manual

Upgrading Onboard Firmware

The Firmware Update program is used to upgrade onboard firmware, automatically opening on the
first reboot after installation. It can be launched manually if upgrading a board not present in the
system when the PC2-CamLink driver software was first installed.
IFC
Firmware Update displays a list of all products it supports, as shown in the following screenshot. To
update all supported products, click Yes and all PC2-CamLinks currently installed within the computer
will be updated with the latest firmware available within the installation CDROM.
A progress window is then displayed showing the upgrade process. Each board present within the
system will be listed. The board upgrade is performed in two steps:
•
The board is first analyzed to verify if its firmware is up-to-date.
•
If not, firmware is updated.
The two progress bars shown below allow you to follow the process.
