2. Connect the two handhelds using a USB mini-B to mini-B USB cable.
3. On the sending handheld, select My Documents from the Home
screen.
4. Press b, then select Send OS.
On a TI-Nspire™ handheld, press b.
5. On the receiving handheld, the message, “You are receiving an OS
Upgrade. Unsaved changes will be lost. Would you like to continue?“
is displayed along with Yes and No response buttons. Select Yes to
receive the OS upgrade.
•If Yes is not selected within 30 seconds, the handheld
automatically responds with No, and the transmission is cancelled.
• It is important to save and close all open documents before
performing an OS Upgrade. Continuing with an OS Upgrade on a
handheld with an open, unsaved document will cause the loss of
that data.
6. While the upgrade is in progress, the following messages are
displayed on the receiving and sending handhelds:
•“Receiving OS. Do not unplug cable.”
•“Sending OS. Do not unplug cable.“
7. After the transfer completes, the sending handheld receives a
completion message and you can unhook the cable. The OS is
automatically installed on the receiving handheld. During the
installation process, the “Installing OS <version number>” message is
displayed on the receiving handheld.
8. When the installation is complete, the “OS <version number> has
been installed. Handheld will now restart.” message is displayed. The
restart is initiated. If the sending handheld is still attached to the
cable, the successful transmission message remains displayed on that
handheld’s screen.
