Note: This package file update method performs an update of the SD card
without reformatting it. Since the card was not reformatted, all previously
stored user data (settings, logs, etc.) are retained. If a reformatted SD card is
desired, use the TFU Prepare New TX1 SD Card feature to format and program
your card.
Remote firmware update method:
Note: The SD card does not need to be removed from TX1 for this option.
1. Launch the Tableau Firmware Update application.
2. Select the SD Cards item from the top navigation bar.
3. Click the Save TX1 Firmware menu item. A Windows File Explorer browse
window will appear.
4. Navigate to the desired location and tap the Save button. The save location
should be chosen so that TX1 will have access to the firmware package file in
subsequent steps. For this specific firmware update method, it is recommended
to save the firmware package file to a network share that TX1 will be able to
mount.
Take note of the name of the firmware package file for reference in subsequent
steps. It will be of the form: tx1-firmware-
yy.q
.tx1_pkg, where
yy.q
represents
the two-digit year and single-digit quarter of the selected firmware release
version.
5. On a remote browser window that is connected to the TX1 to be updated, open
the side navigation menu, and select the About option. The remote About
screen is shown below. Note that the Upload device firmware section is shown
only in the remote user interface version of this About screen.
