3.5.3 iRIS Automated Upgrade Procedure
iLink 2012 has an automated firmware/software upgrade tool that supports the iRIS 150FX. This tool includes several
checks to confirm the validity of the components being installed.
The automated upgrade tool can do both the firmware and software upgrades in one process, saving considerable time
and effort.
The example given below shows a full, automatic firmware and software upgrade for an iRIS 150FX.
1. Make sure the required upgrade files are available on the computer. Ideally these should be located in the default
deployment folders listed above in Section File Naming Conventions .
2. Connect to the iRIS using iLink 2012.
3. Click on the Auto Upgrade button under the Configuration tab.
4. The iLink 2012 will automatically detect the variant and type of the device and these fields will be populated with the
appropriate configuration. If required, please select a different configuration from the drop down list.
5. Click OK to load the selected programs to the device. The progress of the upgrade can be seen on the status bar.
