A.5 Upgrades to Gateway vs. Multi-drop Panels
You can upgrade multi-drop panels in the same way you upgrade the gateway panels
via the web screen.
1. Set DIP switch 6 to “ON.”
2. Connect directly to each panel via a Local Area Network or a direct-connect
Ethernet connection.
3. Return the configuration back to a downstream panel once the upgrade has
been successfully completed.
Caution:
You cannot have more than one gateway on a loop, so it is critical
that you disconnect the 485 cables on the panel you are upgrading.
To perform the upgrade:
1. Before starting, make sure your panels are not buffered. If you have not logged
in to the web pages lately, or WIN-PAK has not been connected recently, you
should login and make sure you have current events coming in. This will
ensure that the panels are not buffered, and you will not have to wait for the
un-buffer to complete before starting. If you try to login and get “time-outs,”
your panels are probably buffered and you should wait for them to complete
their un-buffer before starting the upgrade.
Note:
For WIN-PAK systems, we recommend that you stop the
“communications server service” while upgrading, and then restart the service
after your panels are upgraded.
2. Connect to your gateway panel using the instructions in

Caution:
You cannot have more than one gateway on a loop, so it is critical
that you disconnect the 485 cables on the panel you are upgrading.
3. Log in to your gateway.
