About software update

The firmware of a single Base Unit or of multiple Base Units can be updated with XMS (virtual) Edge. The update can be executed immediately or it can be scheduled.

The Base Unit firmware must be loaded on the XMS (virtual) Edge, prior the update. XMS (virtual) Edge may directly download a firmware from Barco site, or the firmware may be uploaded to XMS (virtual) Edge.

Before a firmware update can take place, the firmware must be available on the XMS (virtual) Edge. For more info, see “Firmwares”
