Software and Fixture Library Updates 

 
From time to time, updates will be issued for the Cognito, covering either software 
improvements or light fixture updates. A link to these update is posted on the Cognito 
product page on the Pathway Connectivity website (www.pathwayconnect.com) or on 
the Pathway product forums (forums.pathwayconnect.com).  You may also download 
directly from www.pathwayconnect.com/downloads/cognito. In some cases, the update 
file may be emailed directly to you.   
 
Software update files and fixture update files will have a filename ending in .Cogupd.  
The latest fixture library is automatically applied whenever a software update is installed. 
 
Simply download the relevant file, unzip the file to a portable USB drive. Review any 
instructions in the readme.txt file in the download, before following the directions below 
to install on the console.  
 

Updating Software 

 

Using any computer, copy the software update file (filename ending in .CogUpd) to a 
portable USB drive.  Plug the USB drive into any of the USB ports on the console. Press 
the Power button once, then choose Setup from the onscreen options.  
 
Touch the Software icon, then ‘Update Software’ at the bottom of the screen.  The 
filename of the update will be shown. If more than one update is present on the USB 
drive, then a list of releases will b shown.  Use the red wheel to choose the release you 
wish to install.  To complete the process, touch OK. 
 
You will be asked to confirm the action.  During the update process, the console may 
reboot up to the splash screen, then reboot again.   
 

Updating the Fixture Library 

 
The Cognito’s fixture library currently includes approximately 1200 lights. However, with 
new lighting fixtures being introduced all the time, updating the library may occasionally 
be necessary.  
 
Using any computer, copy the fixture update file to a USB drive.  The filename will be 
CognitoFixture-<date>.CogUpd.   Plug the USB drive into any of the USB ports on the 
console. Press the Power button once, then choose Setup from the onscreen options.  
 
Touch the Software icon, then ‘Update Software’ at the bottom of the screen.  The 
filename of the update will be shown. If more than one update is present on the USB 
drive, then a list of releases will b shown.  Use the red wheel to choose the release you 
wish to install.  To complete the process, touch OK. 
 
You will be asked to confirm the action.  During the update process, the console reboot.
