E - Firmware Update
... you guessed it. This describes how to make sure your NOXON's software is up to date.
TerraTec offers firmware updates for products at irregular intervals. This takes place via the device's own
software program update function or alternatively, for users to whom this option is not yet available in their
setup menu, by downloading from the website. New firmware contains solutions for commonly occurring
problems and questions, and sometimes new functions—so it pays to update. You can read about the
changes offered in a firmware update beforehand in the "Release notes" on the website.
We'll show you two ways you can carry out the software update. For both options, note that the settings
and favourites can be lost, and therefore you should write down the network settings and back up the
favourites (as described on Page 51).
Note: For all of the procedures outlined here, your NOXON has to be in the same network (generally, on
the same hub or switch) as the computer from which the update is carried out. We recommend connect-
ing your switched-on NOXON and the computer to the network using network cables during the update.
E1 - Firmware update without PC
For all new and current devices, the setup menu includes the "Software update" entry, which avoids the
hassle of the alternative method and allows the NOXON to retrieve and install each new update from the
server automatically.
7 - The setup menu of your NOXON – (Software Update) provides a description of the corresponding
menu entries at which you can carry out the automatic and manual software update directly on the NOXON
without a computer.
E2 - Firmware update via web interface
Likewise, you can update the firmware on your device via NOXON's own Web interface, without any add-on
software, and this works under all operating systems.
Note: On Apple computers, we recommend using either Camino or Firefox for the update. Both are avail-
able as a free download at www.mozilla.org.
Overview of the installation:
Steps Description
1. Backing up the network settings and
favourites with "NOXON Favourites
Commander"
Before an update that resets the network settings of your device (which is
only the case for particular updates), please ensure that you have made a
note of the required access data to use later during the setup! Also back up
your favourites using the "NOXON Favourites Commander" program. Oth-
erwise, the favourites can be lost during the update process and have to be
set up again. More about this in B4 - Backing up favourites using the
Favourites Commander
2. Load the current firmware Visit the Support pages at www.terratec.de to download the firmware data
package for your NOXON. You have to unpack the data package before use.
3. Determine the "IP address" of your
NOXON (the address that identifies your
device in the network)
Open your NOXON's setup menu using the
button and select "Device
status". From there, search for the entry "Software address / IP". Refer also
