How To Update Firmware
Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to update the TourTraXX’s firmware. Do not update the
firmware unless there is a specific need to do so.
Standard Firmware Update
1. Download the latest firmware for the TourTraXX product from
http://www.alcorn.com/support/firmware.html
2. Copy the new firmware file to your Compact Flash card. The file must be named “OS.NEW” if
updating only one unit or “FACTORY.NEW” if updating multiple units using the same CF card.
You may copy it directly using a CF card reader or over a network via FTP.
3. Reset this product by either power-cycling or sending the reset command. It is also possible to begin
the update process from the LCD System menu.
4. When the CF card is detected after loading, the new firmware file will be located and the update
process will begin. Do not remove power from the unit during the update.
5. When the LCD display reads “Update Complete” and the file access LED is off, the firmware
update is complete. If your firmware file was named “OS.NEW” it will be renamed to “OS.SAV”
and the unit will automatically restart.
6. If the firmware update fails (i.e. power was interrupted during update), please follow the directions
under “Firmware Recovery”.
