82 Appendix D: Matrox Imaging operating system utilities and recovery
To apply an MIOS upgrade on several smart cameras, it might be more efficient
to upgrade from a USB key, connected to the smart camera’s VGA/USB connector,
through a GTR-CBL-VGAUSB cable. Burn the MIOS ISO onto one or more
USB keys; see the Acquiring and restoring MIOS from a USB key subsection of the
Restoring the Matrox Imaging operating system section, later in this appendix.
Restoring the Matrox Imaging operating
system
If required, you can restore the Matrox Imaging operating system either to factory
defaults, available on your Matrox Iris GTR, or boot from a USB key with an
upgraded MIOS ISO.
Restoring the MIOS to factory defaults
The factory default version of the MIOS ISO is stored on Matrox Iris GTR. To
recover the factory default version, perform the following:
1. Connect a monitor, mouse, and keyboard to your Matrox Iris GTR, as described
in Chapter 2: Powering and connecting to your Matrox Iris GTR
2. Reboot your Matrox Iris GTR.
3. Near the end of the BIOS boot process, after the BIOS logo appears, a
monochrome screen presents two restore options: the current OS and the MIOS
recovery ISO. Use your keyboard to select the latter.
Warning! This will replace the contents of your Matrox Iris GTR’s storage drive.
4. Follow all on-screen instructions.
