Upload and Activate New Firmware

Upload and activate the firmware package to update the firmware on the library.

  1. Before uploading, download the firmware to a location accessible to your browser.
  2. Connect to the library GUI using a web browser. You cannot upload firmware from the front touch screen or if connected using a monitor and keyboard attached to the back of the library.
  3. Export the library configuration before activating new code. If you need to revert to a previous version of code, the library configuration does not transfer.
  4. Click Firmware in the left navigation area of the GUI.
  5. Click the Library Firmware tab.
  6. Click Upload.
  7. Click Choose File and then browse to the firmware .tar file that you downloaded previously (such as summit-1.0.0.65.27052.tar). Click Open, and then click Upload.
  8. Once the upload completes, click OK.
  9. Click Activate. Activating code will reset the library time to UTC. Confirm the activation.
  10. Activation can take up to 20 minutes and you will be logged out of the library during the update.
