Updating the GoVault Firmware
Check and update the firmware on the GoVault dock as follows:
1 Use the procedure in Checking the GoVault Dock and Cartridge
Status to view the GoVault Status display (see figure 28).
2 Note the
Revision level shown for the GoVault dock in the Dock
column on the
Status display.
3 To determine the most-recent revision level of the GoVault firmware,
use your Internet connection to open the Quantum web page at:
http://www.quantum.com/ServiceandSupport/
SoftwareandDocumentationDownloads/GoVault/Index.aspx#Firmware
4 Compare the most-recent revision of the GoVault firmware on the
Quantum website with the version that is installed on your dock:
a If they are the same, then there is no need to proceed with the
firmware update procedure.
b If the firmware on the Quantum website is a later version than
the firmware installed on your dock, then download the newer
firmware file, saving it to a location on your local system startup
hard drive. This is usually drive C.
5 Insert a write-enabled cartridge into the GoVault dock.
6 Click
Update Firmware on the Status display to view the Firmware
Update
dialog (see figure 29).
7 Click
Browse for Firmware File and navigate to the new firmware file
you downloaded and saved in step 4-b of this procedure.
8 With the new firmware file displayed in the
Enter Firmware Filename
field, click
Start Update.

Ready to commence firmware update message
(see figure 30

communicate with the GoVault drive, including:
