Updating Firmware
When you select Firmware Update from the appliance’s web UI, the Firmware Update page appears. From this page you can determine which Nyquist firmware version the appliance is using and if an update is available. You can also load a firmware release, install the loaded firmware, restore the configuration to factory defaults, and reboot the appliance.
Note: A Nyquist appliance connected to the Nyquist network receives a configuration file from the Nyquist server that includes the latest firmware available from the server. If the firmware is different from the one installed on the appliance, an automatic firmware update occurs unless the Firmware parameter for the station is left blank. Refer to the Nyquist System Administrator Guide for more information. |
To use the Firmware Update page:
1 On the appliance web UI’s main page, select Firmware Update to view or update the firmware version.
2 If the device is in Standalone mode, selecting the Check for Updates button checks the Bogen website for the latest firmware version available. If a version newer than the one currently installed is found, it is downloaded to the appliance.
3 If you already have a firmware file you would like to install to the appliance, select Upload Firmware to upload the firmware file from your computer to the appliance. A popup screen appears that allows you to select the file that you want to upload. You can navigate to the file’s location. After you select the file, select Upload.
4 The page displays the uploaded firmware version (“New Nyquist Version”) and an Update Firmware button appears. Select this button if you want to update the appliance’s firmware to the uploaded version.
5 If you want to return your appliance to its original factory configuration, select Restore Factory Settings.
6 Select Reboot Appliance to restart your appliance.
