Manual # 26-0302000-00 / Revision E ImagePRO – Multi Format Image Processor 97
Software Upgrade Instructions
Overview
The ImagePRO units incorporate the system software in a Flash memory component. Flash memory allows easy field
upgrades without the need to send the unit back to the factory.
The loader utility provides the capability to update the system Flash module with the latest revision of software. The
upgrade utility can be run from a hard drive (recommended) or a floppy drive. Running the loader from a floppy drive
is discouraged though due to the slow speeds associated with disk access.
