SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
- As always, customers should ensure the updated software meets their requirements in a test environment prior to deploying in a production environment.
- Power should not be removed during the firmware update process or the device may need to be returned to the factory.
- If you are upgrading from a release prior to 4.5.264, you must review the release notes for 4.5.264_Patch 2. There are several important considerations when upgrading from pre-4.5.264 releases to release 4.6 that are included in that document..
- [NIM2] The addition of the protected port functionality limits the switching capabilities on NIM2s that do not have a schema loaded. If the NIM2 is on a failover capable wiring hub, ports 2 and 5 will be unprotected and packets can flow between those ports. All ports will be protected if the wiring hub is not failover capable. A protected port is defined as a port that will only have traffic flow between itself and unprotected ports. Protected ports cannot therefore not communicate with each other. If an existing schema is loaded, the default behavior is the same as previous firmware versions.

Smart Valve Installation
Due to the time needed to perform an IR update, it is recommended that the firmware update be done whenever possible using the Ethernet interface (a few minutes) rather than the serial IR interface (40+ minutes).
...
During the firmware update process, any existing Smart Valve program will be erased. If desired, reprogram valve by opening the desired program and selecting Program Hardware (reset schemas) from the Communications Menu.
