Note! The new software version requires system version 2.2.0. This page describes how to update the controller system and spreading software simultaneously. If you already have upgraded the system to OS 2.2.0, you need only download and install the software upgrade file named “updater.zip”.
Notice that all settings and logfiles will be cleared from the controller during the system upgrade.
