Avid S6 Installation Guide64
7 On the S6 touchscreen, tap Activate. A standard Windows Open dialog appears.
8 Navigate the dialog to the USB drive, select the downloaded license file (“S6xxx.bin”) and tap Open.
After a few moments your software will be activated.
9 After activating your software, if you are prompted to update module firmware after the system restarts do the following:
• Navigate to the
Settings > Surface page and press Update.
• When prompted, confirm the update and then wait until all modu
les have updated (which can take several minutes). Do not
turn of
f any modules during this process. The screen displays a message confirming that the update has completed.
10 Proceed to “Installing S6 Supporting Software” on page 64.
Installing S6 Supporting Software
Your Avid Master Account also provides workstation software for Windows and Mac, and S6 documentation. XMON EUCON is
also included in these installers. Whenever you update S6 system software you must also update workstation software on all con-
nected workstations.
After updating S6 system software, do the following:
1 Log in to your Avid Master Account and download EUCON_WorkstationUnifiedInstall software for your workstation (Mac or
Windows), documentation, and other resources from the
My Products and Subscriptions section under Avid S6 M40/M10
Software and Support
.
2 If necessary, insert the USB drive containing the EUCON_WorkstationUnifiedInstall into a USB port on your workstation.
To install WSControl (workstation) software:
3 Double-click EUCON_WorkstationUnifiedInstall, then double-click the installer to launch it.
4 Follow the instructions on-screen (select each option you want to install):
• To only install S4/S6 Workstation software, click to select its option.
• If you will be using S6 and the Control app simultaneously, select both S3/Dock/Artist/Control and S4/S
6 Workstation.
Other combinations are allowed (such as S4/S6 Workstation and EUCON Workstation software) but once installed cannot
be run si-multaneously.
5 Configure S6 Workstation software to auto-launch (click the S6 icon in the Tool bar (Mac) or system tray (Windows) and select
WSControl from the Auto Launch sub-menu).
If no Update option is displayed either the system hasn't completely booted yet, or a module is selected on-screen. Wait for the sys-
tem to finish starting up, and be sure no module is selected on-screen (indicated by a lit rectangle surrounding that module).
EUCON now installs into a default directory for all EUCON devices (including the Control app, Dock, S3, and S6). This lets you
co-install all software for these devices.
You can download these components directly to the workstation(s) you plan to use with S6, or to a USB flash drive.
Do not use the included System Restore USB drive! Use a separate USB flash drive.
