As noted, you may delete a custom profile from the system while it is still
designated as an active profile. Doing so will terminate any virtual media
sessions that were in place.
Handling Conflicts in Profile Names
A naming conflict between custom and standard USB profiles may occur
when a firmware upgrade is performed. This may occur if a custom
profile that has been created and incorporated into the list of standard
profiles has the same name as a new USB profile that is downloaded as
part of the firmware upgrade.
Should this occur, the preexisting custom profile will be tagged as 'old_'.
For example, if a custom profile called GenericUSBProfile5 has been
created and a profile with the same name is downloaded during a
firmware upgrade, the existing file will then be called
'old_GenericUSBProfile5'.
You can delete the existing profile if needed. See USB Profile
Management (on page 244) for more information.
Upgrading CIMs
Use this procedure to upgrade CIMs using the firmware versions stored
in the memory of your KX II device. In general, all CIMs are upgraded
when you upgrade the device firmware using the Firmware Upgrade
page.
To upgrade CIMs using the KX II memory:
1. Choose Maintenance > CIM Firmware Upgrade. The CIM Upgrade
from page opens.
The Port (number), Name, Type, Current CIM Version, and Upgrade
CIM Version are displayed for easy identification of the CIMs.
2. Check the Selected checkbox for each CIM you want to upgrade.
3. Click Upgrade. You are prompted to confirm the upgrade.
4. Click OK to continue the upgrade. Progress bars are displayed
during the upgrade. Upgrading takes approximately 2 minutes or less
per CIM.
Upgrading Firmware
Use the Firmware Upgrade page to upgrade the firmware for your KX II
and all attached CIMs. This page is available in the KX II Remote
Console only.
Important: Do not turn off your KX II unit or disconnect CIMs while
the upgrade is in progress - doing so will likely result in damage to
the unit or CIMs.
