Upgrading Firmware
There are two ways to upgrade the firmware on the Arcadia Station:
-
Using the CCM web interface. When upgrading from the CCM, you can upgrade all connected resources (for example, transceivers and beltpacks).
-
Using a USB stick (USB A on the front of the Arcadia Station). When upgrading in this way, only the Arcadia Stationcan be upgraded.

HelixNet Upgrade
Upgrades to the HelixNet system are included with the Arcadia software. The HelixNet system requires that all connected devices have the same firmware. Therefore, any mismatches that are detected will cause an immediate and automatic upgrade (or downgrade) to the HelixNet devices on connection. The HelixNet system will also upgrade automatically when the Arcadia Central Station is upgraded.
