Upload and Install the Software on your Ki Pro

Uploading and installing the software update only requires a PC or Mac that can "see"
the Ki Pro via its ethernet connection. Follow this procedure to install the software:
1. Point your browser at Ki Pro's upgrade page by clicking on the "Update
Firmware" link at the bottom of the navigation box on the left-hand side of any Ki
Pro web page.
2. Click the "Browse... " button to select the file you previously downloaded. For
example: kipro_ver_2.0.0.99.bin contained in the zipfile downloaded from AJA.
3. When you have selected a valid Ki Pro image file, click the "Upload" button in the
web browser. The file you select will upload to the Ki Pro and be tested for
validity. Incomplete, corrupted, or non-Ki Pro software files are rejected.
4. Wait for the procedure to complete—it will take only a few minutes. When done,
Ki Pro will prompt you to restart your machine. After restart, Ki Pro will be
running the new software. Progress is shown on the front panel.
5. Once these steps are complete, Ki Pro will be running the software you just
uploaded until the next time you upgrade it. The configuration of the Ki Pro prior
to the upgrade will be preserved.
Ensure the new software is running by bringing up the Ki Pro web page again;
the software version is displayed at the top of all web screens. If for some rare
reason it didn't update, you can then run through the update steps again.
Note:
On some browsers, the Retry page may appear even though the software upgrade
was successful. If this occurs, before clicking on retry, refresh the web page and
check the version number. If the new version number appears at the top of the
page, the software upgrade was successful. If the old version appears, click Retry.
If there is a power outage or glitch during the software download, Ki Pro will boot
the older software version and the upgrade process can then be re-started by the
user. This happens because Ki Pro has been designed with a safety feature where an
internal "safe" copy of the previous software is retained in the event the updating
process fails.
Caution!
AJA recommends you only update the Ki Pro when on mains power, or with
a fully charged battery.
