New firmware with ELSA FirmSafe
The software for the ELSA devices is constantly being updated. We have
fitted the devices with a flash ROM which makes child's play of updating the
operating software so that you can enjoy the benefits of new features and
functions. No need to change the EPROM, no need to open up the case:
simply load the new release and you're away.
4.11.1
This is how ELSA FirmSafe works
ELSA FirmSafe makes the installation of the new software safe: The used
firmware is not simply overwritten but saved additionally in the device as a
second firmware.
Of the two firmware versions saved in the device only one can ever be active.
When loading a new firmware version the active firmware version is not
overwritten. You can decide which firmware version you want to activate
after the upload:
'Immediate': The first option loads the new firmware and activates it
immediately. This can result in the following situations:
The new firmware is loaded successfully and works as desired. Then
all is well.
The device no longer responds after loading the new firmware. If an
error occurs during the upload, the device automatically reactivates
the previous firmware version and reboots.
'Login': To avoid problems with faulty uploads there is the second option
with which the firmware is uploaded and also immediately booted.
In contrast to the first option, the device will wait for five minutes
until it has successfully logged on. Only if this login attempt is
successful does the new firmware remain active permanently.
If the device no longer responds and it is therefore impossible to log
in, the firmware automatically loads the previous firmware version
and reboots with it.
'Manual': With the third option you can define a time period during which
you want to test the new firmware yourself. The device will start with the
new firmware and wait for the preset period until the loaded firmware is
manually activated and therefore becomes permanently effective.
