3.2.11. Updating the Software Program
The software update must be obtained from Seon Design. Attempting to load
other software will not work on the EX4 Plus 35 DVR.
Updating the software program on the DVR involves the following steps:
•
Insert a USB memory device with new software into the USB port.
•
Back up your currently used settings (Export Defaults).
•
Run the program update (Program Update) and restart the DVR.
•
Load the default settings (Load Defaults) and restart the DVR.
•
Load the previously saved settings (Import Defaults).
•
Format the hard drive (Format Hard-drive).
IMPORT
DEFAULTS
A set of defaults can be imported
from a USB storage device. The
settings on the USB are saved from
another EX4 Plus 35 DVR (see
Export Defaults). This is a useful
feature if several buses in a fleet are
to be programmed all the same.

EXPORT
DEFAULTS
The defaults programmed into the
DVR can be saved to an external
USB memory device. If there are
several vehicles in the fleet that are
all programmed the same, then the
defaults can be set up on one bus,
exported using the Export Defaults
feature, and then imported on the
other DVRs using the Import
Defaults option. (Note: The DVR
password is not exported with the
defaults.)
