Was the Firmware Update Successful?
If the
ISECURE DEVICE VERSIONS & STATUS
screen
does not display the new version number that you noted in
step 1, try relearning the device while monitoring the
ISE-
CURE DEVICE VERSIONS & STATUS
screen.
When updating keypads, you can check the current firm-
ware version numbers within the keypad itself:
•
With the ISEC
-
WL
-
KEYPAD LCD keypad, use the key-
pad "Local Functions" (perform the steps in the "
Keypad
Attributes
" section on page 63).
•
With the ISEC
-
WL
-
TOUCH color touchscreen keypad,
view the "
System Diagnostics
" screen (tap the
Set-
tings
("gears") icon, then tap the
DIAG
button; see page
65).
If the new update is still not displayed, start again at step 2.

FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD
This screen is used when you wish to manually update the
Go
-
Anywhere Hub firmware, or keypad firmware.
Smart Download
A quick method of communications that compares the sum
-
checks of sections of the Go
-
Anywhere Hub program to
determine if they are different from the account sections
and only communicates data that is different, thus saving
time (for LTE and Voice Prompts only). The iSecure Cloud
Web Portal first compares the original account program-
ming to the existing Hub programming. If they match, the
new changes are downloaded to the Hub; if they differ, se-
lected Hub programming areas are first uploaded into the
iSecure Cloud Web Portal, then the iSecure Cloud Web
Portal downloads the new changes into the Hub. If the iSe-
cure Cloud Web Portal account is locked, the same com-
parison operation is performed (compares the original ac-
count programming to the existing Hub programming). If
they match, the new changes are downloaded to the Hub; if
they differ, the operation aborts.
Available Firmware To Download
Click this pull
-
down to select the Hub, keypad or device
firmware you wish to update.
IMPORTANT:
Perform each
update individually and wait for the update process to com-
plete fully (do not interrupt). When updating keypads, the
LCD keypad (ISEC
-
WL
-
KEYPAD) displays "
Su
" (for
"System update"), and the color touchscreen keypad (ISEC
-
WL
-
TOUCH) displays "
Firmware Update In Progress
".
However, during the update process, be aware that the
keypad and the Cloud Web Portal screens do not always
continually display the current real
-
time status of the pro-
cess. See next section for more information.
To Update Firmware
The duration of the firmware update process varies depending
on the size of the firmware file selected and the speed of the
network connection.
