=======================================
- Alcorn McBride Inc.
-
- V16Pro, V4Pro
---------------------------------------
Installation Instructions

1. Copy OS.NEW to the Compact Flash card.
   
2. Reset unit by turning it off, and then on again. 

3. Wait for Update to complete.  You will see "Firmware Update Complete!" on the screen when finished.

Note: You can alternatively use the menu in Winscript under Help-->Update Firmware to download and update the firmware.

NOTE: 	When the update is complete, the OS.NEW file will be renamed to OS.SAV so that the update does not
	repeat when the hardware is powered-up again.  If you want to use a single flash card to update
	multiple units (for example, an entire Binloop cage), you can change the name of the OS.NEW file
	to FACTORY.NEW.  The FACTORY.NEW file will perform an update just like OS.NEW, only it will not be
	renamed at the end of the update process.  This means that after an update, you can remove the 
	flash card from the product and insert it into another product to perform another update.  

NOTE: 	Updating the firmware may cause the V4/V16Pro to reset to it's factory default network settings.  Make sure that you remember or write down these settings before updating your V16Pro. (IP Address, username, password, etc)
