5.1.3.1 Firmware
The Firmware tab allows the user to upgrade the firmware version of the system elements.
The HCM upgrade procedure consists of downloading the new software version, setting it as the “Active”
version, and restarting the HCM. The new software can be activated either immediately or at a more
convenient time as defined by the user. The procedures are performed via the Firmware submenu.
By default, Auto Sync option is enabled, hence the software of all installed devices at the site is updated to
the software version of the HCM. If this automatic update is not desired, the “Auto Sync” option can be set to
“OFF.”
The button can be used when a reboot is required.
