Updating the software 

The software running on the Link IO can be upgraded. 
This is a rare operation, but it might be required if extra functionalities have been introduced on future 
releases and you would like to use it on existing devices running an older software. 

 
The software 

is provided as a single file with name “Autorun.ap1”.

 

 

Note 1:

 when updating the software, you might lose all your settings and the device will default back to 

factory configuration. We would recommend running a BACKUP of your settings so you can RESTORE them 

once the update is finished (check the “Backup/Restore Settings” chapter to know more about this function)

 

 

Note 2:

 the upgrade process can take up to 10 minutes! Do not unplug the USB cable/dongle or the power 

supply during the process. 
 

Note 3:

 the upgrade process takes over the 5 minutes backlight timer. This means the display backlight will 

switch off while the upgrade is working. Check the screen after 10 minutes, you should find the “press ENTER 
to restart the device” message. Press ENTER and the device should be updated and ready to be used again.

 

 

Connecting directly to the device 

Connect your Link IO to your PC using a USB A to USB micro cable (you can find the USB micro port on Link IO 
lifting the rubber flap just below the screen) 

 
The Link IO will appear as an external drive. Find the folder UPGRADE there 

 

 

 

Once you have copied the file, make sure you disconnect the drive (Link IO) on the Windows taskbar and 
disconnect the USB cable. The screen will access then the file and prompt you to upgrade the software. 

Follow the instruction on the screen pressing 

 to confirm.
