Method of software upgrading
Steps of software upgrading are as follows:
1. Select a serial connection wire and a VGA connection wire and then connect them by means of a
patch panel;
2. Use a serial wire to connect the PC to the patch panel and set TV set to off state;
Open the software upgrade file holder and double click
FlashUpgrader (window 2000/XP/NT)
The following interfaces will show up after running the program:
Based on the computer features, set up the serial port (COM Port). Select corresponding serial port
(if it’s unable to FLASH WRITE, change to another port). Baud is selected to be 115200. Then
select Reset Target After Download. Click FLASH pushbutton, it’s ready to run. For other settings,
please refer to the Fig. Above (already defaulted by the system, normally no need to change).
Switch on TV set the FLASH write program begins to run;
After FLASH write is over, push button “cancel” will become flash. Then shut the main power supply
and it’s OK just switch it on again.
Note: Do not shut the power off or turn the TV set on during the FLASH write. Otherwise it may lead
to no way for flash to rewrite.
