Updating Software
There are currently three ways of updating software on Kameleon and 2000
series modules depending on the type of module and its current software
version.
•
2000NET (version 3.2.0 and later), Kameleon, and some applicable 2000
modules may be updated using the NetConfig Networking Applica-
tion option available with modular and other Grass Valley products.
Refer to the NetConfig Instruction Manual available with the option
and on-line and the specific module release notes for complete details.
•
If NetConfig is not available, 2000NET (all versions), Kameleon, and
some applicable 2000 modules may be updated using the FTP down-
load method described in this manual (
).
•
Some 2000 series modules do not support either of the above remote
software downloads. These modules require a special cable kit as
described in
Unsupported Software Updates on page 55
.
