When updating the transmitter device port, the USB cable must be removed from the HID port
while the chassis power is off in order to reboot the module.
Repeat the steps in paragraph 3.1.2 for each of the update ports on the Q-Series KMASS Modules.
3.3. FPGA Downloads
Upgrades are available through Thinklogical. For technical assistance, please call us at:
1-203-647-8700.
To update a Module’s FPGA functionality, Install a USB cable from the CPU’s USB-A port to the USB-B
UPDATE Port on the front of the chassis (see diagram on page 17). Module FPGA functionality is
updated from the front panel and not from the connectors on the module.
The chassis is responsible for FPGA updates. Do not connect to the modules to update the FPGA.
