Firmware update procedure
From time to time Datavideo may release new firmware to either add new features or fix
reported bugs in the current TLM-170G firmware. Customers can update the DAC-70 firmware
themselves or contact their local dealer for assistance.
This page describes the firmware update process and it should take
approximately 15 minutes
of total time
to complete.
A working TLM-170G requires the following:
•
The latest firmware file for the TLM-170G monitor. This can be obtained from your local
Datavideo office or dealer.
•
A USB 2.0 pen drive (128MB or larger) with a USB A connector.
Once started
the update process should not be interrupted in any way
as this could result in
a non-responsive unit.
