PDATING PROCESS
For more information about the updating process, please refer to the document
"Updating procedure" available in Xtender System Update (Softwares and Updates)
on: www.studer-innotec.com/en/downloads/.
To carry out an update, insert the MicroSD card (containing the latest software version) in the
Xcom-232i module’s MicroSD card reader. Before starting the updating process, the system
automatically checks the compatibility between the device and the software present on the
MicroSD card. The MicroSD card must not be removed until the end of the updating process. If for
some reason the updating process is interrupted, reinsert the SD card to let the process finish.
The updating process can take between 3 and 15 minutes. During this period, it is
possible that the signalisation LED does not respect exactly the cyclical ratio
described

. The updating is finished once the signalisation LED stops blinking red for
at least 20 seconds continuously.
The updating of a remote control RCC-02/-03 or of another Xcom-232i must be
done directly on the connected device.

Or SD card for the RCC-02/-03.

Remember to turn off all Xtenders (putting them on "off”) before inserting the
MicroSD card

to carry out an update. If not manually performed, the updating
process will automatically stop all Xtenders connected to the communication bus.
