Controller Firmware
To upgrade controller firmware on the system:
1. Select the Panel Upgrade Operations option from the File page.
The following page is displayed:
2. Select the firmware file to upgrade by clicking the Browse button for the
appropriate option, selecting the required firmware file and then clicking on the
appropriate Upgrade button.
A confirmation screen is displayed.
3. Click on the Confirm button to confirm the upgrade to the new version of the
controller firmware.
When the controller firmware is upgraded, the system will display a message to
indicate that the system is resetting. You must login to the system again to
continue operation.
If you downgrade the controller firmware (i.e. install an older version of firmware),
the system defaults all current configuration settings. Also, when downgrading
firmware, it is important to downgrade the corresponding peripheral firmware
otherwise zones may appear disconnected, opened or closed.
