The Firmware Upgrade Utility
Introduction
The purpose of the Windows-based Firmware Upgrade Utility is to provide an
easy process for upgrading the VC486. The program comes as part of a
Firmware Upgrade Package that is specific for each device.
As new firmware versions become available, new firmware upgrade packages
are posted on our website. Check the website regularly to find the latest
information and packages.
Downloading the Firmware Upgrade Package
To download the firmware upgrade package:
1. On our Website go to: Download - Firmware and choose the device
model, or from the VC486 product page under the Resources tab, select
Firmware. A list of available firmware upgrade packages appears.
2. Choose the firmware upgrade package that you wish to install (usually the
most recent) and download it to your computer.
Chapter 4. The Firmware Upgrade Utility
12
Preparation
To prepare for the firmware upgrade, do the following:
1. Unplug the VC486’s power adapter.
2. Use a Micro USB cable to connect a USB Type-A port on your computer,
and the other end to the Firmware Upgrade Port of your VC486.
3. Plug the power adapter into Power Jack on the VC486.
4. If successful, the Status LEDs that indicates the SDI, HDMI, and power
status will start to flash. Now, you can start the upgrade process as
explained on the next page.
VC486 User Manual
13
Starting the Upgrade
To upgrade the firmware:
1. Run the downloaded firmware upgrade package file either by double-
clicking the file icon, or by opening a command line and entering the full
path to it.
The Firmware Upgrade Utility welcome screen appears:
Note: The screens shown in this section are for reference only. The wording
and layout of the actual screens put up by the Firmware Upgrade Utility
may very slight from these examples.
2. Read and Agree to the License Agreement (click the I Agree radio button).
Chapter 4. The Firmware Upgrade Utility
14
3. Click Next to continue. The Firmware Upgrade Utility main screen
appears. The devices capable of being upgraded are listed in the Device
List panel:
4. Click Next to perform the upgrade. The Status LEDs SDI, HDMI, and
power will flash while the upgrade is in process.
If you enabled Check Firmware Version, the Utility compares the device's
firmware level with that of the upgrade files. If it finds that the device's
version is higher than the upgrade version, it brings up a dialog box
informing you of the situation and gives you the option to continue or
cancel.
If you didn't enable Check Firmware Version, the Utility installs the
upgrade files without checking whether they are a higher level, or not.
Status messages appear in the Status Messages panel, and the progress
toward completion is shown on the Progress bar.
VC486 User Manual
15
Upgrade Succeeded
After the upgrade has completed, all port LEDs will stop flashing and a screen
appears to inform you that the procedure was successful:
Click Finish to close the Firmware Upgrade Utility.
Upgrade Failed
If the Upgrade Succeeded screen doesn't appear, it means that the upgrade
failed to complete successfully. See the next section, Firmware Upgrade
Recovery, for how to proceed.
Chapter 4. The Firmware Upgrade Utility
16
Firmware Upgrade Recovery
There are three conditions that call for firmware upgrade recovery:
When a firmware upgrade is manually aborted.
When the mainboard firmware upgrade fails.
When the I/O firmware upgrade fails.
To perform a firmware upgrade recovery, do the following:
1. Power off the device.
2. Connect the Micro USB cable to the USB Type-A port on your computer,
and the other end to the Firmware Upgrade Port of your VC486
3. Repeat the upgrade procedure.

Appendix
Safety Instructions
General
This product is for indoor use only.
Read all of these instructions. Save them for future reference.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the device.
Do not place the device on any unstable surface (cart, stand, table, etc.). If
the device falls, serious damage will result.
Do not use the device near water.
Do not place the device near, or over, radiators or heat registers.
The device cabinet is provided with slots and openings to allow for
adequate ventilation. To ensure reliable operation, and to protect against
overheating, these openings must never be blocked or covered.
The device should never be placed on a soft surface (bed, sofa, rug, etc.) as
this will block its ventilation openings. Likewise, the device should not be
placed in a built in enclosure unless adequate ventilation has been provided.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the device.
Unplug the device from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid
or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
The device should be operated from the type of power source indicated on
the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power available,
consult your dealer or local power company.
To prevent damage to your installation it is important that all devices are
properly grounded.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord or cables. Route the
power cord and cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped over.
Position system cables and power cables carefully; Be sure that nothing
rests on any cables.
Never push objects of any kind into or through cabinet slots. They may
touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts resulting in a risk of fire
or electrical shock.
Appendix
18
Do not attempt to service the device yourself. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
If the following conditions occur, unplug the device from the wall outlet
and bring it to qualified service personnel for repair.
The power cord or plug has become damaged or frayed.

Rack Mounting
Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to
the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on
the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front
stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the
rack first.
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a device from
the rack.
Use caution when pressing the device rail release latches and sliding a
device into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
After a device is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a
locking position, and then slide the device into the rack.
Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the
rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit
rating.
Make sure that all equipment used on the rack – including power strips and
other electrical connectors – is properly grounded.
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to devices in the rack.
Ensure that the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
does not exceed the maximum ambient temperature specified for the
equipment by the manufacturer.
Do not step on or stand on any device when servicing other devices in a
rack.
