Upgrading Firmware

You can upgrade the firmware for either the appliance or the AVRIQ adaptors.

The AVRIQ adaptors can be upgraded individually or simultaneously. When

an upgrade is initiated, you will see a message indicating the current status. As

long as an upgrade is in progress, you cannot initiate another.

Viewing appliance Version information

When you select the Versions category for the first time, the AMP will retrieve

the firmware versions from the appliance. The Hardware sub- category displays

the version information for the unit itself. The AVRIQs sub- category allows you

to view and upgrade all of the AVRIQ adaptors in the system.
