A Praim thin client can be updated using two different type of file:
Note
To download a Praim Service Pack or Hotfix register yourself on the http://www.praim.com website.
A Service Pack is a software that allows to upgrade the thin client firmware from a specific version to the next available version (e.g. "PraimServicePackWE8_1.0.0(1.0.1).exe" will upgrade the thin client firmware from version 1.0.0 to version 1.0.1). If a Service Pack is executed on the wrong firmware it will not produce any effects and the original firmware will remain untouched.
A Hotfix is a part of a Service Pack. A Hotfix, installed on a specific version, will leave the version number unchanged. Hotfix may be suggested from Praim Support to fix a specific feature on the thin client.
The software upgrade (Service Pack or Hotfix) can be installed in two different ways:
In the first case be sure first to disable the write filter, then after the reboot execute the installation file and when the installation procedure ended then disable the write filter (this operation will reboot the thin client). This operation sequence will preserve a clean installation of the software.
In the second case, ThinMan will execute the correct order of operation: it disable write filter, reboot the thin client, execute the installation file and then enable the write filter again (with final reboot).
Depending on the ThinMan Server license you will be able to perform the upgrade process in different ways:
Refer to the ThinMan Guide for specific instructions.
