Update the HUB Software
Note: Software updates are not backwards compatible. Updating the software will make the Pulse Pro system unavailable for ~20 minutes. Please plan accordingly before updating the system.
There are currently two methods for updating the Pulse Pro Hub.
A. Updating when the Hub has an internet connection from the cloud (recommended)
B. Updating when the Hub does not have an internet connection through a local computer
To begin updating for both paths:
1. Log into Pulse Pro software with an Administrator Account.
2. Before updating the software, ensure the date/time is set correctly. You can do this by clicking the gear icon in the upper right corner > Application Settings > Time Settings.
3. In the same menu, navigate to Diagnostic Logs.

- Select File for Update (A. Hub with internet connection)
