Grass Valley Trinix v.2.4.1 - Manual (Page 177)

Planning and Installation Manual 177
General Guidelines for Firmware Management
• There should be no red lights in the Status column. If there are,
it may be that a board has been replaced by another with an
older version of software. The solution is to check the radio
button on the bottom of the menu that is next to the latest top-
level software package, then update the software to the newest
version. For more information, refer to the Field Engineering
Bulletin supplied with the software or contact Grass Valley tech-
nical support.
• In most cases the latest software should be used. The two top-
level software packages shown along the bottom of the menu
should have the newest package listed first, indicating that the
newest package was the last one activated.
CAUTION Grass Valley strongly recommends that users keep all software current.
New boards are not guaranteed to be compatible with old versions of
software. A system failure may occur if a new board is received as a
replacement part and loaded with old software.
Firmware Update
For firmware update instructions, refer to the Field Engineering Bul-
letin supplied with the firmware.
On-line Help
If Adobe Acrobat Reader is installed on the PC, the Trinix manual can
be displayed on line by clicking the “Help” command in the Broadlinx
title bar. (The Help command may be beyond the right margin of the
Broadlinx window; if so, go to the left edge of the window and slide it
to the left until the Help command appears.)
