This window allows updating the software of QX1000 by
installing a new firmware (image). If you are registered at Epygi as
a customer, you will get a message when a new firmware is available and
then you can download it from the Epygi Web page
www.epygi.com.
You may additionally configure the QX1000 so it will automatically update
its software once a new software is published by Epygi. The Automatic Firmware Update link leads you to the page where the automatic update of the QX1000's firmware (software image) can be configured.
Attention: When the older firmware is installed on the
QX1000, the system configuration will be lost and the device will be factory reset.
Please Note: It is recommended to backup the
configuration prior to upgrading the firmware. You can do that by clicking the
Download Configuration link, which generates a backup file with all configuration
settings and user uploaded greeting messages. It opens a file chooser window for immediate
download to the users PC.
To update firmware manually select one of the options: Upload Firmware or Get Firmware From Server.
