36 Broadcast Time Delay
Program Updates via CD-ROM
The Broadcast Time Delay operating system and On-Screen User Interface programs can be
updated by the user via the internal CD-ROM drive. Program updates may become available by
360 Systems from time to time. The current software version can be determined by looking in the
On-Screen program About box, or by pressing the F1 key.
To install a program update, follow these instructions. Please read them completely before
beginning.
Remove the Broadcast Time Delay front panel. The internal CD-ROM drive will be seen at the left
front of the server.
With the Time Delay powered on, press the CD eject button on the drive. The drawer will open a
short distance. Gently pull the drawer open and insert the CD-ROM disk, printed side up. Push
the drawer closed until it latches.
Press the front panel power switch briefly to shutdown the Time Delay.
Wait 5 seconds, then press the front panel power switch again to boot from the CD.
An installation option menu will be displayed which includes the choices “Update,” “New,” and
“Cancel.” Select “Update.”
The message, “Please wait while Software is being installed” will appear with an activity indicator.
When installation is complete, the server will automatically reboot from its hard disk array, and
display the usual copyright notice while it is starting up. It will also release the CD drawer. Remove
the CD. Never leave it in the CD drive.
Replace the front panel. Tighten the two large front panel access screws.
If a disk cannot be ejected because the system is not responding or is powered off, the CD-ROM
drawer can be released by inserting a paper clip into the small hole on the front of the drive.
