JCD features an easy-to-use update mechanism that requires a USB pen drive and an update package (a ZIP file), which will be
available for download at http://www.dynamicprojection.com/jcd-support/.

To install an update, simply download the update package (named “jcd-update-xxx.zip”) and extract its contents onto
an empty USB pen drive. The pen drive must be FAT32 formated. Remove the drive safely and plug it into one of the USB 
ports on the control unit, the update will then automatically start, which is indicated by the JCD Status changing to 
“UPDATING“. Please wait around a minute for the update to finish. After the update has finished, the web interface will 
automatically reload and the new version number should be visible on the “Welcome & Help” tab.
NOTE: If your current setup is working correctly, it is not recommended to update the system.
