The first upgrade

Upon the first launch, Wizyconf automatically upgrades its firmware. The notification about the upgrade is displayed. It takes up to 10 minutes to complete the upgrading process (depends on the Internet connection). Then Wizyconf is rebooted automatically. 

Open

Further upgrades

Wizyconf is distinguished by updates from 3 different branches:

1. Wizyconf app via Chromium OS (automatic upgrade). The system checks for updates once an hour. If there is a new version, it is downloaded and installed upon the next start. To upgrade:

   1. Power the device off/on by pressing Power button on Wizyconf Core or put it into a standby mode by pressing Power On/ Off button on Remote Control

   2. To check the App version, press Home button on a keyboard -> go to Wizyconf Settings menu (Google chrome icon)-> click on Main menu (three lines) -> select About Chromium OS (a mouse and a keyboard are required)

2. WMS interface (manual upgrade). To upgrade:

   1. Upgrade WMS to the latest version from rel60beta or rel60 / rel70beta or rel70 repositories

3. Conference server: no need to upgrade, the changes are available right away

You can check Wizyconf Station updated in the Wizyconf Changelog.
