• V1.3 Re-uploaded file with new checksum EA November 2025

تعارف
System T installations typically include one or many SSL surfaces, Tempest Engines, and Network I/O units. This software release comprises control surface software and Tempest Engine card firmware updates. To identify the current software version running on any console(s), go to Menu>Setup>Service>Admin>About. Updating to V4 directly from V2 software is not supported; a V3.0 or later version must be already installed first due to significant changes to the console’s embedded operating system. V3 and later software require a one-time OS licence to update from V2. Contact support@solidstatelogic.com for further information on licensing. Refer to the V4.2.13 Features Release Notes for further information before installation.
مهرباني ڪري نوٽ ڪريو: This update requires any manual IP address settings for the console’s interfaces to be verified/re-entered after the update. Ensure all fixed IP addresses are recorded before commencing this update, including the S400. If this includes S500 Meter Bridge Processors, refer to the Restore Fixed IP Address to Meter Bridge Processor section in this document for further information.

USB انسٽالر ڪنيڪشن تي اهم نوٽ
It is possible that the USB flat installer will not be detected when connected via ports on the console surface. Should this be the case, connect directly to the processor motherboard/carrier board USB ports. This means locating the bay position in which the processor is located and temporarily removing the relevant touch screen or surface tile to insert the USB, seating them back in their usual position while the installation process completes.

Important Note on Boot Menu Display
F7 on an external keyboard will launch the boot menu to select a boot device. In some cases, the menu will not appear from power on, and a software restart of the FPP is required by pressing the Ctrl-Alt-Del key combination before tapping F7 again.
