Automatic
firmware update
When you register the board, ControlDesk’s Platform Manager will
automatically update its firmware to the available version if the current
version is lower than the available one. This is the default setting after
you install the dSPACE software. You can also switch off automatic
updating. For details, see Platform Manager Page in the ControlDesk
Reference.
