TriCaster 460/860 Upgrade Installation Guide
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the TriCaster 460/860 Upgrade. This document will take you through installation and registration. But first
let us take a look at the steps you should have covered getting to this point.
After purchasing you should have received an email from your reseller. This email provides the following information:
•
Your Upgrade Serial Number.
•
A link the the online registration form.
Before heading to the online registration page you will need one more piece of information, your current TriCaster Serial Number.
Once you have that you can proceed to the page for this portion of the registration from any machine.
Online Registration
The Online Registration page will have asked for your Current TriCaster Serial Number, your Upgrade Serial Number, to fill out the
appropiate fields, and click REGISTER. This displays a 6-digit REGISTRATION CODE along with some additional information which
includes a link to this document and the page where you can download your upgrade. All of the information on this registration
page will also be emailed to the address associated with your Current TriCaster Serial Number. If you need to update this address
for future purchases you wll need to log into your account profile online.
Download
Estimated time to complete this section: 1-4 hours (times will vary based on bandwidth)
At the end of the Online Registration you will have access to the following page: http://www.new.tk/upgrade. This page will provide
links to this document and to the upgrade. Before downloading the upgrade it is recommended that you:
•
backup all personal files and media.
•
perform a restore on your TriCaster. (section A.5.7 page 309 of the TriCsster User Guide)
It is important to keep all the parts of the upgrade together. We suggest you create a folder for these files on your “D:\” drive. You
can get to the Windows desktop by doing the following:
1. Exit the TriCaster software.
2. From the Navigation Ring select the Shutdown icon
3. Select Administrator Mode.
4. Select Exit to Windows
Now when you download the upgrade choose the folder you created as the destination for the files. A few things to remember
before moving on:
•
Download ALL the parts to the upgrade before running the Installer
•
If you are downloading on a machine other than the TriCaster you should still keep all the files together in a folder.
•
The Upgrade is about 6 gigabytes in size among 14 files so download times will vary based on bandwidth.
•
You can begin multiple file downloads and step away until the downloads are complete.
