3.7.3 Update Firmware

The IP console is a complete standalone computer. The software it runs is called firmware. The
firmware of the IP console can be updated remotely in order to install new functionality or
special features.
A new firmware update is a binary file which you can download from the CPI website:

.

If the firmware file is compressed (file suffix .zip) then you must unzip it before you can proceed.
Under the Windows operating system you may use WinZip from http://www.winzip.com/ for
decompression. Other operating systems might provide a program called unzip.
Before you can start updating the firmware of your IP console the new uncompressed firmware
file has to be accessible on the system that you use for connecting to the IP console.

Updating the firmware is a three-stage process:

Warning!
Only experienced staff members or administrators should perform
