Controller Licensing
Each VNC 200 device is supplied with a default level of functionality which can be
upgraded by obtaining a special license key from Extron. Device licensing is discussed here.
In addition to the individual device licenses, the system itself holds a license on the unit
that has been designated as the controller for the system. This license defines which
VNC 200 devices are permitted to run on the system.
Currently, the controller license is used to license (permit) the correct number of seats
when using the VNM Software Decoder.
A license key contains two elements – a structure and a checksum. New licenses may be
obtained from your Extron dealer when they are required.
Upgrading Device Firmware
Extron may issue firmware upgrades for the VNC 200 in order to make new functionality
available. Details of the latest firmware release will be published on our website.
Upgrades are supplied in a single file. An example filename is upgrade_ver3.3c.tar where
ver3.3c is the version number. Before you start, you will need to copy the upgrade file on
to the computer that you use to access the VNC 200 controller.
The update process is split into the following stages:
