5. Click Restart FS2 with New Firmware to restart the FS2. This will take the FS2
offline for a minute or two. During the restart, progress is shown in the
connection area in the upper right corner of the FS2 Status screen. After restart,
the FS2 will be running the new software.
6. Once these steps are complete, the FS2 will be running the software, and the
Software Version on the Status screen shows the new version number. Check
that the new software is running by bringing up the FS2 web page again; the
software version is displayed at the top of all FS2 web screens. If the FS2 did not
update successfully, run through the update steps again.
Notes:
The configuration of the FS2 prior to the upgrade is preserved. The unit returns to
service exactly as it was before the upgrade.
If there is a power outage or glitch during the software download, the FS2
will boot the older software version and you can restart the upgrade
process. This happens because the FS2 has been designed with a safety
feature where an internal “safe” copy of the previous software is retained
in the event the updating process fails.
System Cabling
System Video/Audio
Cable Connections
When installing your system, you’ll make video and audio input/output
connections. These connectors are explained individually in Chapter 2.
GPI Connections
Appendix B GPI Connector Pinout shows how to wire the GPI connector to work
with external devices that you want to use to control the FS2 or that you want
the FS2 to control. There are four inputs and four outputs. The GPI inputs and
outputs are electrically isolated from the power and ground on the FS2 frame.
Electrical isolation is provided for up to four pieces of external equipment. The
following guidelines apply to the four GPI inputs and outputs:
• GPI In 1 and GPI Out 1 share a common isolated ground on pin 5 (GPI GND 1).
• GPI In 2 and GPI Out 2 share a common isolated ground on pin 6 (GPI GND 2).
• GPI In 3 and GPI Out 3 share a common isolated ground on pin 10 (GPI GND 3).
• GPI In 4 and GPI Out 4 share a common isolated ground on pin 11 (GPI GND 4).
• Pins 1 and 15, local chassis ground, may only be used as references when
isolation is not required.
• All four GPI inputs are internally pulled high through a 10K ohm resistor to
an isolated +5V supply, so that a relay contact closure or any device
sinking at least 0.4 mA to ground will register a logic low.
• All four GPI outputs are +5V TTL compatible, sourcing up to 6mA and
sinking up to 4mA each.
