16bit Firmware Upgrade using the Admin App

The process of upgrading the Firmware on a 16bit system using the Admin App is almost identical to the Traka Touch Application upgrade.

  1. Within the Admin App, select the system you wish to upgrade the firmware to and then click on the Software Update tab.

  2. Click on the button to the right of the grid as shown below. If the firmware version you require appears in the list, skip ahead to step 5.

  3. If the firmware version you require is not present in the field, you will need to locate it.

  1. Navigate to the Firmware file to be uploaded. By default, the system will be looking for a file with the .mot extension. Click on Open.

  1. The selected file will appear in the grid. Click on Upload.



    Clicking on upload will initiate the sending of the file to the database via the Business Engine.

  1. Once the file has been uploaded, it will appear on the list.

  2. Click on the row and then click on Update Traka System. A window will show asking you to confirm.



    TrakaWEB will decide whether the new firmware requires a Full Upload after the upgrade process has completed. If yes, a new window will appear, and it will display the status of the operation.

  3. Once the upload has completed, click on Close.



    NOTE: The system will be unavailable during the upgrade process. The System View will show that the ‘System is temporarily busy’.

The Command List Report will also show progress of the upgrade.

  1. Open the Command List Report in the Diagnostics report section. Each command can be expanded by clicking on the sign to show the detailed Command Progress events that occurred during the Command processing at the system.

NOTE: The actual firmware upgrade process is the same as used by Traka32.
