The following procedure describes how to overwrite the existing firmware
on a Fluidmesh device. This procedure assumes that the wireless network
is currently active.
To overwrite the existing firmware on the Fluidmesh device, do the
following steps:
1.
Power OFF all Fluidmesh devices connected to the wireless
network.
2.
Disconnect all Ethernet cables from the Fluidmesh device.
3.
With the Fluidmesh device disconnected from the wireless
network, power ON the device.
CAUTION
Do not restart or power OFF the device while
firmware overwriting is in progress.
Restarting or powering OFF the unit before
overwriting is complete will permanently damage the
unit.
4.
Connect the computer containing the firmware image file directly
to the Fluidmesh unit, using an Ethernet cable. For detailed
information on direct connection, refer to
