Upgrading Halogen Software and HAL Firmware
For the HAL System to function, Halogen and the firmware located on your hardware devices must be
the same version. When you install a new version of Halogen, firmware updates are also installed (on
your computer). To actually install the new firmware on the devices themselves, you must then manually
launch the firmware update process. The following procedures explain how to upgrade both the Halogen
software and the firmware for your HAL and peripheral devices.
