Firmware Upgrades
The
Admin
tab provides controls for selecting and loading card firmware upgrade files. This
section outlines the firmware upgrade controls for your HDC-8223A(-S).
Firmware Upgrade Controls
Firmware upgrade controls allow a selected firmware version (where multiple versions can be
uploaded to the card’s internal memory) to invoke an upgrade to a selected version either
instantly, or set to install on the next card reboot (thereby allowing card upgrade downtime to be
controlled at a scheduled point in time). This ‘deferred upload’ allows scheduling a firmware
upgrade downtime event until when it is convenient to experience to downtime (uploads typically
take about 60 seconds).
To perform an immediate firmware upload
1.
Access a firmware upgrade file from a network computer by clicking
Upload
at the
bottom of DashBoard.
2.
Browse to the location of the firmware upgrade file.
3.
Select the desired file and click

to upload the file to the card.

box.

. The HDC-8223A(-S) holds directions to proceed
with the upload, and performs the upload only when the card is manually rebooted (by
pressing the
Reboot
button).
