Changing a Densité Card’s Installed Package
The package of a Densité card consists of a version of software and a version of firmware
bundled together. You can upgrade your card’s firmware and software simply by upgrading
the installed package. Use iC Navigator’s Densité Upgrade Manager to manage your card
packages and Densité card upgrades.
To change a Densité card’s installed package
1. In Densité Upgrade Manager, verify if the package you would like to install on your
Densité card is available on the Application Server in the Available package column.
2. In the Available package column, in the row corresponding to the card to be upgraded or
downgraded, select the package you would like to use.

IMPORTANT: System behavior
Regardless of whether your installed package is upgraded, downgraded or

Server. If you use the Upgrade button, firmware installs ONLY IF it has a different
version number (either newer or older) than the currently installed firmware.
If you would like to force your Densité card to install same-version firmware, use
the Force upgrade functionality (see
).
