I/O Card Updates for Gio, Ion, and Element
Version 2.0.0 includes an update to the I/O card firmware.
To update your firmware:
Step 1: With v2.0.0 installed on your console, open the Eos Configuration Utility (ECU - Also
known as the Eos Shell) either by exiting the Eos Family software (Browser>Exit) or
by starting up the console and clicking on the {Launching in...} button. The ECU
screen will open.
Step 2: Click on the {Settings} button. The settings window will open.
Step 3: Click on the {Maintenance} button inside of the settings window. The maintenance
settings will appear in the window.
Step 4: Scroll down to {Upgrade I/O Firmware} and click to open the window.
When you first open the I/O Downloader, it will look for the connected console. This may take a
second or two.
Step 5: Once the console is found, the downloader will search for the needed files. When it
finds the file, it will list it and you can click {Download}.
• If it doesn't find the file, you can use {Browse} to look for the needed file and se-
lected it.
Step 6: When the update is finished the window will say “Download Complete”, click {Exit}.
It is recommended that you reboot your console after updating the firmware.
Dual NIC Update for Gio Users
Eos 2.0 adds support for the second Network Interface Port on Gio consoles. This feature allows

also install the ETC GCE Net3Svc v3.1 or higher.
Example applications:
• Support 2 separate Net3 Gateways, networks or sACN devices
• Support 2 separate networks (e.g., one sACN, one artnet, or one sACN and one Network
Attached Server)
• One network for 'output' devices (sACN, EDMX, Artnet…) and one network for controls an
interfaces (Consoles, RPUs, Show control)
