FLASH UPGRADE USER GUIDE IMPRESSION A10+/A9+/A8+ 2. INTRODUCTION This User Guide has been created to provide an easy to understand description on how to flash upgrade the SW on projectors that are prepared for this in the field. It describes the methodology and the correct software and hardware to use to perform flashing without any hassle.
FLASH UPGRADE USER GUIDE 4. CONNECTING THE CABLES The Flash upgrade is done via the serial mouse port on the projector. This is the communication interface from the computer to the projector. All PC/notebooks are equipped with serial interface connectors, and may thus be used for this purpose. Connect the computer to the projector using the regular VGA cable.
FLASH UPGRADE USER GUIDE The settings to use depend on the current communication settings on the projector in question. Check the ADVANCED /SERVICE / INFO dialog box in the projector menu to see the current communication settings to use. Change the settings in Hyperterminal so that it matches the communication settings in the projector.
