Providing a new image

Download the latest software packages that are not yet included in your container from our portal. In ELIAS, import them into your container. For further information, see Importing packages into a container in the ELIAS 18 guide or Importing software packages in the ELIAS 18 guide.
In ELIAS, add the relevant software packages to your image. Then save the modified image file. For further information, see Creating an IDF in the ELIAS 18 guide or Creating an image in the ELIAS 18 guide.

Checking firmware configuration of the devices

For the relevant devices, open the Device configuration > Firmware. To apply the update to all devices, choose Options > Base device configuration.
Check whether the following fields are configured correctly for a firmware update: Protocol, Server, Path and Image file.

The URL shown below the Path box is generated based on this data. The URL is relevant for the transfer of the image file (.idf and eLux software packages.

The specified image file name must be identical to the name of the image file updated in ELIAS.
For firmware updates via command: To allow users to postpone the update, configure the reminder settings. User can then control the time of execution themselves. For further information, see Update deferment by users.
To update the devices automatically on start or shutdown, select the relevant Check for new version option in the bottom area.

Since in this case the update is initiated by the device, the firmware parameters stored locally on the device are used.
Confirm with OK.

For further information on the firmware update configuration, see Configuring firmware updates.
