Installation steps:

To load a new version of firmware to your SW VGA Ars switcher, call the Firmware Loader software from within the Universal Switcher Control Program. Your computer’s serial port must be connected to the switcher’s serial port.

1. In the Universal Switcher Control Program, click the Firmware Loader button.
2. If you have not updated firmware for the SW VGA switcher before, on the Add Device screen, select the RS-232 tab. If you have updated firmware for this model, click Cancel. The Firmware Loader window appears. Proceed to step 5.
3. From the drop-down menus on the RS-232 screen, select the appropriate Com port number (obtained from your system administrator) and baud rate (the default is 9600).
4. Click OK. The Firmware Loader window appears.
5. Select the SW VGArs and click File > Open. The Choose Firmware File screen appears.
6. Navigate to and select the new firmware file. The Choose Firmware File window closes.
7. In the Firmware Loader window, click Begin. The Total Progress and Progress status bars show the progress of the upload. The firmware upload to the switcher may take several minutes. Once the status bars have progressed from 0% to 100%, and Status is listed as Complete, the firmware loader utility resets the switcher.
8. Click Exit to close the Firmware Loader.

About Audio & VGA Switcher Firmware:

Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.

On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.

When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.

As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.

Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release. 

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
