Getting Started – Checking for and Updating the Fusion Software
1.
Connect the Fusion Controller to the Internet:
(Note: Insure that the battery is fully charged or adequate USB Power is being provided before attempting a
software update. Power failure during an update could require the return of your Fusion Controller for
servicing.)
In order to check for and install a software update, the Fusion Controller must be connected to the Internet using a
wired connection.
Using a standard CAT5-type Ethernet Cable, connect the Fusion’s Ethernet port to a suitable router/switch port
on your network.
The Fusion should automatically request and obtain an IP Address from your network and connect to the
Internet.
Observe the Internet Status Indicator on the Fusion’s title bar. When internet access has been made, the icon
will change from
to
Note:
When the Fusion Controller is connected to the Internet, it acts like a mini-router and provides that internet access
to the WiFi network it creates. Thus, internet requests from the computer connected to the Fusion’s WiFi will
automatically forward to the internet
2.
Check for Software Update:
Open the
SETTINGS
tile from the Fusion Home Page, then select the SOFTWARE sub-page. If there is a software
update available, the UPDATE button on the upper right of the screen will be green. If no update is available,
the button will be gray:
Update Available
Update NOT Available
3.
If an Update is Available, Click the UPDATE Button to Begin:
The Fusion will start the update process. It may ask if you are sure you want to do the update before
proceeding.
During the process, it will put some progress messages on the screen. It may pause for what seems like a long
time but it is still working.
When the update is complete, the unit will either reboot or turn itself off pending on the requirements for that
update. If it does shut down, simply repower the unit and allow it to start. You will be running the new version
of software.
