FIRMWARE UPDATE
LogBox Wi-Fi
has two firmware: 1 located on the motherboard, which must be updated via USB, and 1 located on the Wi-Fi module, which must
be updated by Over the Air technology. In a firmware update, it is important to update both. To do so, make sure you get the correct firmware
versions from the
NOVUS
website and update the motherboard and the Wi-Fi module.
16.1
FIRMWARE UPDATE VIA USB
You can update the device firmware using the
NXperience
software. On the home screen, simultaneously press the Ctrl + Shift + F12 keys. A
firmware update screen will appear:

Once this is done, select the device to be updated, add the firmware file to be used and click the
Program
button.
16.2
OVER THE AIR (OTA) FIRMWARE UPDATE
The
LogBox Wi-Fi
module can be upgraded using Over the Air (OTA) technology.
To perform this procedure, you must know the device’s IP. After that, you will need to access it through a Browser. In the address bar, you must
enter the device’s IP address: /novus_logbox/upgrade (192.168.88.86/novus_logbox/upgrade (192.168.12.33, for example).
Once the Browser loads the device’s firmware update page, you will need to upload a .fw file, which contains the Wi-Fi module’s new firmware
version.
The firmware update through this interface has the objective of updating network services such as MQTT, Modbus-TCP, among others. For a
complete upgrade, you must use the
NXperience
software and update the rest of the device via USB.
