Over-the-Air Firmware Updates
To offer new features, Blackline Safety periodically releases over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates. OTA firmware updates are only available when EXO is on a cellular network. Firmware updates have two steps:
Automatic download
Automatic installation
Automatic download
When a firmware update is released, EXO will gradually download the update whenever it is on and connected to a cellular network. EXO will be ready to install the firmware update when the download is complete. This will not interfere with normal EXO use.
Automatic installation
The completely downloaded update will automatically be installed the next time EXO is powered on. This installation will add 30-60 seconds to the start-up sequence.
When the green light is solid and EXO is connected, it will automatically power down. The top lights will then flash red and yellow, and the device will be unresponsive. After 30-60 seconds, EXO will power back up and display the new firmware version it has downloaded.
Once firmware is installed, EXO will continue to monitor as usual.
EXO will NOT monitor when firmware is installing.
Specific information about new updates can be found on the Blackline Support site. If you have any questions, please contact Blackline Technical Support .
