Intellex® Version 1.6 Upgrade
Since we continually improve our products, we have prepared
this upgrade package for you. Use it to upgrade your Intellex
unit software to version 1.6.
New Features
In addition to performance improvements, this upgrade adds
the following features:
The unit diagnoses archive problems more effectively than
previous versions. It also provides more information about
archive operations. New archive options let you format
tapes and recover data from tapes.
A computer with the Network Client software can access
the unit’s status, alarm list and image database over a lo-
cal area network (LAN). The proper network hardware
must be installed in the unit and configured correctly. You
may also have to upgrade the unit’s motherboard. (Con-
tact technical support for more information.)
The unit supports watchdog operation when the appro-
priate hardward is installed. (Contact technical support
for more information.)
Refer to the Intellex online help and manuals, especially the
Intellex Version 1.6 Addendum, for more information. You can
also refer to the Network Client online help and manuals.
