It is recommended to use the Wyse Management Suite version 2.0 to upgrade your ThinOS firmware to 9.0. You can also use the USB Imaging Tool version 3.3.0 to install the ThinOS 9.0 Merlin image on your thin client. If you are using ThinOS v8.5 or earlier versions, you must first upgrade your device to ThinOS v8.6 before installing ThinOS 9.0. ThinOS 9.0 displays a change group notification message on the device after you change the group in Wyse Management Suite. A new firmware or package message is also displayed when you deploy a new firmware or package using Wyse Management Suite.
NOTE You cannot upgrade ThinOS PCoIP version as ThinOS 9.0 does not support PcoIP devices.
CAUTION All device settings are erased after you upgrade from ThinOS 8.6 to 9.0 except the Wyse Management Suite server settings. You must back up your device settings before you start the upgrade process. Once upgraded to ThinOS 9.0, you can downgrade to ThinOS 8.6 only by using Merlin image.
The overall upgrade process using Wyse Management Suite includes the following tasks:
Register your thin client to Wyse Management Suite.
