Software Updating
Updating Software With NetConfig
The instructions given here assume your Kameleon module is running at
least version 4.1.0 software.
If you are updating a Kameleon module with software version 2.0.2 or ear-
lier, use the instructions given in the latest Kameleon Release Notes
(071-8207-XX) available on the web site with the software update.
NetConfig Upgrade Procedure
Use the following procedure to upgrade using NetConfig:
1. Copy all Kameleon software download files from the C:\temp
directory into the main NetConfig directory on your PC. This is
normally in the default location in C:\Program Files\Grass Valley
Group\NetConfig.
If you have installed NetConfig in another location, find the location of
the NetConfig directory by right-clicking on the NetConfig shortcut.
Select
Properties and note the location in the Start In field. Download the
package to the NetConfig directory.
2. In the main NetConfig directory, locate a folder named modular . If this
folder does not exist, create a folder called modular in the main
NetConfig directory.
3. There are two .fld files available. Move the .fld file named
KAM-AV-SD_5.0.1.fld into this
modular folder.
Note The KAM-AV-SD_5.0.1_appli_only.fld is only required for modules with soft-
ware 2.0.2 and earlier. Instructions for using this file are provided in the
Kameleon Release Notes.
4. Verify that the KAM-AV-SD.sw2 file is somewhere in the main
NetConfig directory (not in the
modular folder). This file should not have
a .txt extension or it will not work properly.
Note NetConfig reads each .sw2 file in its main directory and navigates to the
directory given in these files to find the .fld files available. There may be a
number of .sw2 and .fld files in your NetConfig directory for other modular
products. These will not interfere with the update.
5. Locate the module(s) to be upgraded in your frame and unplug each
one. Plug each one back in to reset before beginning the upgrade.
CAUTION During the download, the module will have no video output, so be sure the
module is off-air before upgrading.
