About automatic firmware updates

There are 3 ways to configure automatic updates:

• Automatic: The system will automatically detect firmware updates and install them for you when it’s not in use.
• Notify: The system will automatically detect firmware updates and notify you on the web interface dashboard and firmware page. The update can then be initiated via the Support & Updates > Firmware page
• Off: The system will not detect firmware updates and will not notify you.

• When your device is connected to a network and managed via the XMS (Cloud) management platform, the firmware can be upgrade via this Management solution. For more information on upgrading firmware in this way, consult Barco’s web pages on XMS (https://www.barco.com/en/page/xms-cloud-management-platform).
