Automatic Software Update via ACA

To perform an automatic software update at boot, you need to place 2 files on the root directory of the ACA:

  • The firmware image to be loaded.

  • A text document called ‘startup.txt’ which points to the firmware image to be loaded.

The text file needs to contain the following content: ‘autoUpdate=<software file name>’

(Example with the firmware to be loaded renamed to ‘firmware.bin’)


Then you can insert the ACA to the device and (re-) boot it. The firmware mentioned will automatically be loaded and updated on the device.
