NSTALLING UPDATES
As new features become available Epicenter will occasionally release updates to the Centerpoint
KVM software. You may want to update the Centerpoint firmware or software to take advantage of
these improvements.
The upgrade procedure can be completed quickly and easily via a Window-based application. The
Centerpoint product is configured to allow direct downloading from a PC or a laptop that is
connected to the Centerpoint through the serial port (RS232) located next to the external mouse
and keyboard connectors.
To update the firmware you need the following items:
• Laptop or PC with available serial communication port
• Standard serial cable (male DB9) that connects between Centerpoint and the PC or
laptop computer
• The Upgrade.exe Software provided by Epicenter Technical Support on the floppy or a
hard drive
Leave the Centerpoint KVM System power on. Disconnect or
shut down all servers from the Centerpoint to be upgraded.
Connect the serial upgrade (RS232) cable between the Center-
point serial port to the Laptop or the PC's serial port.
Locate the Upgrade.exe program. It can be on the floppy or the
hard drive. Double click on the Upgrade.exe icon or file name.
When it appears, use the pull-down to select Serial Port number
on you laptop or the PC. For example: COM1, COM2
