Using Floppy Disks

the section “ System Backup ” on page 2–33 for more information.
2. Power off the frame.
3. Power off the control panel.
4. Move the Software Upgrade jumper (

5. Power on the frame first.
6. Power on the control panel second.
7. Insert the S234 Software Upgrade Disk #1 in the drive.
When prompted, remove Disk#1 , insert Disk #2, press Continue , and wait for the
upgrade process to complete. The software is complete when the menu buttons flash in
“marquee” fashion.
8. Power off the frame
9. Power off the control panel.
10. Move the jumper on

(on the Frame CPU Board ) to the
Down
position.

This completes the procedure for upgrading system software. Please continue with the “ Restoring
Disk Registers ” procedure.
Note
If you receive an error message informing you that you must have CPU
issue

will require you to power off the frame and set the jumper back to the
DOWN position and power on the frame and control panel without the
floppy disk in the disk drive.
