G-scan2 PC Utility Software
AA-4-4. Software Update Offline
Offline update that provides the update files contained in a DVD, a memory stick or any kind of storage
device is also supported because customers and distributors in many countries are unable to use or
have difficulty in utilizing the online update features that require broadband internet connection for fast
data transfer.
The update software package is primarily provided contained in a DVD or as a downloadable
installation program every 3 months, which is redistributed to the individual customers through the
local distributor. Please contact your local distributor and inquire the availability of the update DVD if
you want to update your G-scan2 using the Off-line update features.
The difference between Online and Offline update is the media through which update files are
transmitted to the user’s PC.
- Online update downloads the files from GIT server to the PC through the internet
- Offline update installs the database to the PC from the DVD (or a storage device of any kind)
When the files are transferred to the PC, then they should be moved from the PC to the SD card to run
on the G-scan2, and this procedure works basically the same for both online and offline update
functions
Before commencing, please make sure to prepare for downloading software by inserting the G-scan2
SD Card to the PC.
1. Turn G-scan power OFF and remove the SD Card from the base unit
2. Insert the SD Card to the provided Card Reader
3. Insert the Card Reader to a USB slot of the PC
Use of the provided SD Card is always recommended, and the use of third party SD Card Reader or
direct insertion to the PC’s SD Card slot may cause the corruption of the downloaded files.
