  1. Downloading the OS:

    • The upgrade process begins by downloading the OS. Depending on network performance, this may take several minutes.

    • During this download, the controller's LED will flash yellow.

  2. Installing the OS:

    • Once the OS is downloaded, the system will install it and then reboot to re-write the operating system. This takes approximately 30 minutes.

    • During this phase, the LED will be solid yellow.

  3. System Boot-Up:

    • The system will boot up after installing the new OS and re-orient itself. This process takes about 3-4 minutes.

    • The system will preserve any special network settings and their previous identity and states.

    • Manually re-provisioning or using the Admin app is not necessary.

    • The LED will display various states but should eventually transition to flashing yellow.

  4. Reinstalling Software:

    • Finally, the software must be reinstalled onto the new OS. This can take 30-60 minutes, depending on network performance.

    • During this time, the LED will flash yellow, and the device will be usable, but expect delayed responses to actions.

  5. Completion:

    • Once all work is complete, the ACU will transition to a green LED.

    • In the Control Center Alta Access portal, under Device update management the UPDATE STATUS of the ACU will show “Up to date” once the entire process is finished.
