SST on Android ?

[V-P]

Anyone knows if there will be a SST for android (or MAC based) ?

Or is there a way to install SST under android ?

I am looking to buy a notebook and I saw the 10" tablets. Very nice - light -easy - a lot of good stuff.

But most of them are running android.

thnx in advance

Re: SST on Android ?

i highly doubt it. Canon is slowly moving away from using the SST load firmware on the devices with the advance series and now the new prismasync systems. Doesn't seem like a good business decision to me.

No more SST ???

I guess in a couple of years it will be only "WiFi firmware upgrade" ... or "Cloud Upgrade"...

USB and network connection through the machine interface. The scheduler is a wonderful tool for downloading firmware right to the device. I rarely use SST anymore.

This is interesting, please give more light of what kind of scheduler is it!

Re: SST on Android ?

Its built into the archcitecture of the image runner advance series devices and pulls the firmware you choose through a secure port from Canon's servers to your machine. You can then choose to automatically install or hold the firmware until you come back to install it while you are on location. I always choose this option.

You can also schedule what time the machine downloads the firmware so you are not eating up the customers bandwidth which is nice. I always schedule this for after 7 PM

Just so everyone knows...the CDS downloader or "scheduler" is only good for updating older versions of software. DO NOT use it to fix suspected software malfunctions in the machine. The CDS downloader does not overwrite software it only will upgrade.

Thats when you use a USB stick to do a full overwrite
