The download process consists of several phases:
File selection and downloading
Restarting of the printer
Programming each board as required
CAUTION: Cycle the power to the printer only when instructed to do so by the
printer’s control panel. Do NOT turn off the machine or disconnect the network
cable at any other time during the update process. This will interrupt the download,
corrupt the firmware, and damage the control system.
To update the printer firmware
1 Open the Gerber Solara ion web pages by opening a web browser and entering the
printer’s IP address in the address bar.
2 On the Home page, click the Update link and wait for the system to enter the Gerber
Solara ion Firmware Update page. (This may take one to two minutes.)
3 You can download the update file from either the GERBERnet library or the upgrade
CD.
4 To download from the upgrade CD, click the Browse button and browse the CD to
locate the file with a GSP filename extension (for example:
Solara_ion_A0_Build_XX.gsp), and then click Update.
5 To download from the GERBERnet library go to:
http://www.gerberscientific.net/GSP/eService/SoftwareDownloads/
SoftwareLibrary.aspx. Locate the latest Solara ion Firmware Update and click the
Click
Here to Download File button.
6 Follow the file download instructions and save the firmware upgrade file to a known
location such as the desktop. The firmware upgrade file has a GSP filename extension
(for example: Solara_ion_A0_Build_XX.gsp) and may be in a zipped file. After
downloading, unzip the file to allow access to the GSP file. Once that is completed,
browse for the file using the Browse button on the Solara ion Update web page, and
then click Update.
