We strongly recommend to do a firmware update only if needed. There is a potential risk of a failed
update process to cause a dead device which can only be recovered by sending it to Avisaro service.
Good reason for an update is a known bug repair or an additional feature.
There are three ways to update the firmware of the Avisaro 4.0 family:
1) Via USB Stick
If the Avisaro 4.0 product has a USB Host port, a new firmware can be uploaded using a USB
stick. See details below.
2) Via PC Companion software
If the Avisaro 4.0 product is connected to a PC via USB cable, the firmware can be updated
using the PC companion software. See details below.
3) Via Remote Update
For selected products, a remote firmware update via FTP server / Internet is provided.
See paragraph “
” for details.
The latest firmware version can be found online:
