SOM (Option, required for MPEG2 playback)
If the SOM option is included with the IMB, please follow the steps in this
section to integrate.

7.1 Preparing the SOM OS

Please request from your service provider to produce the SOM OS for the IMB with the
corresponding serial number.
Note that the upgrade files shall be downloaded and put inside a USB stick and insert into one of
the front USB port on IMB after SOM is booted up.
To verify SOM boot up properly, vncviewer projectorIP:43752 shall see AdminPanel on SOM.
Below are the steps to get SOM OS up to date:
1. Request somID package for the correct serial number on SOM.
2.
Apply the somID package on SOM (not server).
AdminPanelDiagnostics/MaintenanceSoftware Upgrade (vncviewer
projectorIP:43752 to see the SOM User Interface).
3. Apply the SOM software upgrade package (e.g. named as 'upgrade-SOM-step3-build56-
20120911.tgz.enc') on SOM (not server) in the same way as Step 2.
4. SOM (not server) AdminPanel->Diagnostics/Maintenance->Software Upgrade should be used
for future SOM upgrades.

7.2 How to Update the SOM OS Serial Number

In the case that the SOM OS received from production does not have any serial number
(SOMp2:/usr/local/dsr/serial does not exist/exists but empty) or you need to use a SOM OS for a
different serial number on your IMB.
Below are the notes to update the SOM OS serial number:
1. Simply use a CF card reader on a PC and create SOMp2:/usr/local/dsr/serial (without any
suffix) on the CF card, the file shall contain the same serial number as IMB, e.g. A01357.
2. Put the CF card back onto the IMB and follow Section 7.1 to get the SOM OS up and
running.
3. The SOMp2:/usr/local/dsr/serial file will be deleted after the SOM boots up.
4. When the SOM OS serial number is updated, please re-run the steps from Section 7.1.
