3. Turn off the Write Filter by double-clicking the Write Filter Disable icon on the
desktop. The Write Filter is a special mechanism that prevents unauthorized
writes to the I/Port’s flash memory. The Write Filter status is always displayed
in the toolbar by a green circle for Write Filter Enabled (flash memory cannot
be written), or by a red circle for Write Filter Disabled (flash memory can be
written).
4. Insert the USB storage device into an available USB port.
5. Copy the update files to
C:\
. (This is faster than installing through the USB
port.)
6. Launch the update installer. Accept the defaults and click through the installer.
7. Reboot your computer when prompted to do so. This reboots the I/Port.
8. When the I/Port finishes rebooting, log in as Administrator again.
9. Delete the update files from
C:\
and double-click the Enable Write Filter icon
to re-enable the Write Filter.
10. When the Write Filter has been re-enabled (a green circle is displayed in the
tool bar), log out from the Administrator account and continue to the next
I/Port.
Note: If you have a number of I/Ports to update, you may want to set up several
terminals (keyboard, monitor and mouse) in the same place, and update
several I/Ports at one time. A KVM switch can also be used to provide this
same capability.
For a remote installation:
1. Compress the IPORT-CLIENT folder to
IPORT-CLIENT.zip
.
2. Push out the batch file and the
IPORT-CLIENT.zip
file via the Administration
Console. See Updates on page 55 for more information.
By default, the installer places the I/Port User account in the Administrators group of
the I/Port. This is required for the client to function correctly. If the User account is
moved from the Administrator group, or is installed in another group, the I/Port client
cannot communicate with Grid Center.
Note: Grid Center I/Port clients are pre-installed on Eon e100 and Capio One
I/Ports. For more information, see Appendix A: Using Grid Center with e100
and Capio I/Ports on page 61.
