Appendix C Software Upgrade Instructions - GE IDP-1111 User Manual

Appendix C Software upgrade instructions
This appendix provides the instructions that are to be used in conjunction with the
software upgrade file that you download from www.gesecuirty.com.
If you purchased a v2.1.9 or later Legend dome, then you have the new AHC
(active housing card) that is required for some of the recent software changes. If
you are upgrading a Legend dome that has an earlier version of software, you may
or may not have to retrofit the dome with a new AHC. It depends upon what
features you want to use. The most commonly used features do not require the
new AHC. See What's new in this release
require a new AHC.
For additional upgrade details, you can also refer to the specific instructions that
come with the software upgrade file or the AHC retrofit kit, which currently are
the Legend v2.1.9 Software Upgrade Installation Instructions (1054754) and the
Legend AHC Retrofit Installation Instructions (1055588).
If you need to retrofit the AHC, it can be retrofitted in the field. Contact
GE Technical Support for one AHC retrofit it per dome.
CAUTION: If you retrofit the AHC, you will lose all custom programming. All settings
will revert to factory default settings. We recommend that you record your
custom settings prior to retrofitting the AHC.
