However, if there are changes to setting values in the firmware, all settings will be
initialized. Therefore, it is recommended that you back up your settings using the
backup/restore utility in the “Settings” menu. Data in the flashdisk is protected.
However, we recommend you backup your files before updating the Polaris MINI
Firmware as unexpected problems can occur.
Note: You cannot cancel the update once it has started. You must not reset
the unit during an upgrade. You must keep the unit connected to AC power
throughout the upgrade process. We recommend you do not touch the
Polaris MINI while it is updating. It may take up to 60 minutes to update the
Polaris MINI, possibly even longer depending on the speed of your Internet
connection.
Also note: the upgrade files are temporarily stored on the flashdisk for
installation. If you do not have enough memory available on the flashdisk,
the Polaris MINI is unable to update until you make room for the upgrade
files.
You can access the "Upgrade Firmware" option via the "Utilities" menu, or launch
it from anywhere on the unit using "F3-U".
When you have chosen your upgrade method, and the upgrade files are
downloaded or detected, Polaris MINI will extract all of the necessary program
files. There are about 40 files to extract, and progress is announced every few
seconds.
