Determining if you have a Base License
- Using a Web browser, connect to the iQs to be updated.
- Click on the License Management link under System on the left-side menu.
If your system shows a license beginning with IQSB (as shown in the image), you may proceed with the update. A base license will start with IQSB, and show as (Base) in the name, and show Active.
If no Base License is shown, stop now and contact support. We will provide you with a Base License. The Base license is entered AFTER the update to version 1.4.12. Instructions provided below.
Preparation for Update
Axia iQs has two internal software “banks.” Each bank contains room for a complete version of operating software. This approach allows a software update to be completed and checked without the danger of making the unit inoperable if the download were to be incomplete or corrupted. It also provides an easy way to try a new software version and still return to the old version.
You can see the software version in each bank from the Setup web page. The lower half of this screen, pictured below, shows the software versions present and allows you to select the bank used at startup. To change banks, click the radio button for the desired bank and then click on Change active bank.
. Rebooting will result in the loss of audio locally and at any unit using the local sources.Upload New Software

Known Issues
- Re-sync to Arbitrary PTP clock (#11028)
- If the PTP source is an arbitrary clock (no GPS clock) and that device reboots, the drastic shift in time can lead to difficulty in the iQs to re-sync. We recommend using a PTP grandmaster, which keeps and maintains current time. Alternatively, when the sync is lost, reboot the iQs.
