Upgrade Firmware Chapter 5
ATTENTION: Removing the USB flash drive or SD card, from the
PanelView Component terminal, while a firmware upgrade is in
process, could corrupt the firmware and make the terminal
unusable. Take precautions to prevent the USB flash drive or SD
card from being accidentally disconnected. Also, do not power off
the terminal while a firmware upgrade is in progress, or during the
subsequent boot-up process that follows the firmware upgrade.
ATTENTION: USB hubs can produce unexpected behaviors and as
a result are not recommended.
IMPORTANT Some USB flash drives might not be compatible with the
PanelView Component terminal and might not support file
transfers or firmware upgrades. The catalog number,
2711C-RCSD memory card was tested with the PanelView
Component terminal to ensure compatibility.
TIP Only the C600 and C1000 support the SD Storage Card.
TIP The firmware version consists of a major and minor two-digit
number, and a three-digit revision number, separated by a
period (for example, 01.23.456 where 01 is the major, 23 is the
minor, and 456 is the revision). The firmware version for the
terminal is displayed on the System Information screen.
TIP The firmware version information appears in the filename of
the firmware file that is downloaded from the PanelView
Component technical support website, for example,
2711C.FUP.01.23.EXE.
