Mode.

A
dialog

would
like
to
update
the
firmware
only,
or
also
format
the
V-‐Machine’s
Flash
memory
(see
Figure

If

choose
to
format
the
Flash,
you
will
then

to
be
available
from
Flash.
To

connect
a
USB
drive
or

above
in
Section

●
You
will
see
a

figure
on

which
shows
how
the
update
is
progressing.
Don’t
turn
off
the
V-‐Machine,
quit
the
VFX
Application
software,
or
unplug
the
USB
cable
until
the
update
process
is
completed.
When the update is completed, turn your V-‐Machine off and back on again.
