Software Upgrading
5.9.1
Introduction
It is possible
for the user
to upgrade the
main
software via the
USB port. This allows replacement of a software image in a
stand alone set. A description on how to upgrade the main
software can be found in the DFU or on the Philips website.
5.9.2
Main Software Upgrade
Automatic Software Upgrade
In “normal” conditions, so when there is no major problem with
the TV, the main software and the default software upgrade
application can be upgraded with the “autorun.upg” (FUS part
in the one-zip file). This can also be done by the consumers
themselves, but they will have to get their software from the
commercial Philips website or via the Software Update
Assistant in the user menu (see DFU). The “Autorun.upg” file
must be placed in the root of your USB stick.
How to upgrade:
1.
Copy the “autorun.upg” file to the root of an USB stick.
2.
Insert the USB stick in the side I/O while the set is “on”.
The TV will prompt an upgrade message. Press “Update”
to continue, after which the upgrading process will start. As
soon as the programming is finished, the set must be
restarted.
In the “Setup” menu you can check if the latest software is
running.
