Software Updating With NetConfig

To use this method, your 2000NET module must be running version 4.0.0
or later and you must have the NetConfig Networking Application option
running on a networked PC on the same subnet as the frame with the
2000NET module. Two files are required for updating software, an .fld and
an .sw2 for the module being updated. For acquiring software, refer to

Acquiring the Latest Software on page 98

.

To use NetConfig for software updating, follow the steps below:

1.

Locate the PC directory in which the NetConfig application has been
installed. The default location is C:\Program Files\Grass Valley
Group\NetConfig.

If this is not where NetConfig was installed, right-click on the Net-
Config desktop shortcut and select

Properties

, click on the

Shortcut

tab

and note the location of the installation in the

Start In

field.

2.

Copy the .sw2 file for the module update into the main NetConfig
directory.

3.

Create a subdirectory named

modular

(if one does not already exist) in

the main NetConfig directory.

4.

Copy the .fld file for the update into this modular subdirectory.

5.

Open NetConfig and click on the

Load SW

icon on the top toolbar

(shown at left).

Note

Different versions of NetConfig may differ in the software update directory
structure used for accessing software. Refer to the NetConfig manual for the
version you are using.
