There are two possibilities to update the extender modules via matrix:
•
Parallel Mode:
By default, used for parallel updates of several extender modules.
The extender modules of all selected I/O boards are updated in parallel.
Advantage: The Parallel Mode offers the fastest method for updating the extender modules.
•
Sequential Mode:
Option to update extender modules sequentially, extender module by extender module, after the update
of the previous extender module is completed.
Advantage: The Sequential Mode offers the possibility to select/deselect individual firmware to be
updated.
We recommend updating the firmware of the extender modules via the Parallel Mode.
