8. Firmware Upgrade Utility
8.1 Before you Begin
To prepare for the firmware upgrade, do the following:
1.
From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation go to the support section on
www.tripplite.com and choose the model name that relates to your device to get a list of available
Firmware Upgrade Packages.
2.
Choose the Firmware Upgrade Package and Firmware Upgrade Utility you want to install (usually
the most recent), and download it to your computer.
3.
Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable (provided with this unit), to connect a COM port on your
computer to the Firmware Upgrade Port of your switch.
Note: On a daisy chained installation, the chained stations will automatically receive the upgrade via the daisy chain cables.
4.
Shut down all of the computers - but not the daisy-chained KVM Stations - on your KVM
installation.
5.
From your KVM switch console, bring up the OSD (see page 16-21) and select the
function.

Scroll down to
Upgrade Mode. For your reference, the current firmware upgrade version displays on the screen.
