Flashing the SD card
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
In some case, you may need to reflash your IoT Box’s SD Card to benefit
|
||||
from our latest updates.
|
||||
In some circumstances, the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box's micro SD Card may need to be
|
||||
re-flashed to benefit from Odoo's latest :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` image update. This means
|
||||
that the Odoo :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box software may need to be updated.
|
||||
|
||||
Upgrade from the IoT Box homepage

Upgrade from the IoT box home page
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Go to the IoT Box homepage, click on *Update*, next to the version number.
|
||||
If a new version of the IoT Box image is available, you will see a
|
||||
*Upgrade to ___* button a the bottom of the page, the IoT Box will then
|
||||
flash itself to the new version of the IoT Box. All of your configurations
|
||||
will be saved.
|
||||
Go to the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage by navigating to :menuselection:`IoT app -->
|
||||
IoT Boxes` and clicking on the :guilabel:`IP address` of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box.
|
||||
Then click on :guilabel:`Update` (next to the version number).
|
||||
|
||||
If a new version of the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` Box image is available, an
|
||||
:guilabel:`Upgrade to _xx.xx_` button will appear at the bottom of the page. Click this button to
|
||||
upgrade the unit and the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box will then flash itself to the new
|
||||
version. All of the previous configurations will be saved.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
This process can take more than 30 minutes. Do not turn off or unplug
|
||||
the IoT Box as it would leave it in an inconsistent state.
