Update Crestron Drivers

Update Crestron Drivers to enable new functionality that was implemented when the driver was
updated. Drivers that are downloaded from the Crestron Driver portal and drivers that are side-
loaded are updated differently.
Update a Downloaded Crestron Driver

When a Crestron Driver device is added to the system, a copy of the driver is stored in the
Crestron Home processor. The driver is not updated automatically when an updated version of
the Crestron Driver is available on the Crestron Driver portal.

To update a downloaded Crestron Driver, follow these steps:

1. Remove all devices in the Crestron Home system that use the Crestron Driver.

NOTE: If a device that uses the driver remains in the system, the updated driver will not
be downloaded.

2. Restart the Crestron Home processor. The Crestron Driver is removed from the system
after the processor restarts.
3. Go to Pair Devices > Third Party. Wait for the Crestron Home processor to update the list
of Crestron Drivers.

4. Add the device to a room. For details, refer to Add a Driver Device to a Room (on page 68).
5. Tap the gear button next to the device name to confirm that the device was added
with the updated driver. The About tab displays the driver version.
