Managing and Installing Firmware Versions You can check the version information of firmware installed on devices (boxes, control panel banks) in an island and off-island. You can also correct version mismatches and install packages. Displaying Package Status 1 Open the MLS Manager Home > Version > Info/ Install menu (65101.01). 2 Select a tab to change the display (Island or Off- Island). 3 Press the [Detect/Refresh] button. The [Island] tab is used to detect and display a list of the boxes assigned to an island and the control panel banks configured in a control panel assigned to a switcher in an island. The [Off-Island] tab is used to detect and display a list of the boxes not assigned to an island, and the control panel banks configured in a control panel and the control panel banks not configured in a control panel that are not assigned to a switcher in an island. If there is a version mismatch between box/control panel bank devices, "Incorrect Version" is displayed in the list. In this case, for boxes/control panel banks configured in a switcher, you can resolve the mismatch using the System Configuration > Version > Information menu (20401.11) in the MLS-X1 menu. For details about correcting a mismatch, see "Repairing a Version Mismatch" (page 456). Note If no box or control panel bank connections are detected, the icon is displayed. Press the [Detect/ Refresh] button to run box/control panel bank detection again. 4 Check the information for packages installed for an island on the [Island] tab. Last Installed Package for Island: Version and creation date/time of the last package installed for an island Island Status: Indicates whether there is a mismatch between the version of the last package installed for an island and the version installed on any of the boxes or control panel banks in an island OK: No mismatch in version data (Warning icon) + "Incorrect Version": Mismatch exists in version data ---: Nothing has been installed for an island Note This information is not displayed on the [Off-Island] tab. To sort the box/control panel bank display You can press a display item title to sort the display. Pressing a title switches between ascending and descending order each time you press the title, and [v] (ascending) or [V] (descending) is displayed on the right side of the title. Installing a Package Note During installation, do not shut down or reboot an island or switcher, and do not turn off any boxes or control panels. Doing so may prevent the system from booting successfully.

The boxes and control panel banks assigned to an island are detected and displayed in a list. 4 Press the [Recover Island] button. 5 Check the message, then press [OK]. The target device is rebooted. Note Once the process has started, it cannot be undone. Installing a package 1 Open the MLS Manager Home > Version > Info/ Install menu (65101.01). 486
