Torx tool with T15 magnetic tip
This section provides instructions for the following eld kits:
DescriptionUpgrade Nomenclature
K2-XDP2-CPU-FK
K2-XDP2-V9-FK
For any upgrade from a software version lower than 9.0 to a 9.x version, you must reimage the system and do all the steps as directed in the procedure to ensure the system is properly initialized.
CAUTION: This system contains board-level components that must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Wear a wrist strap grounded to the system chassis when handling system components.
Work through the tasks in this section sequentially.

Saving settings

Do this task for both software and CPU carrier module upgrade kits.
Before doing this task, on the 16GB USB Recovery Flash Drive that you received with the kit, write the serial number of the K2 Summit/Solo system to identify it as belonging to that individual system.
NOTE: Do not attempt to use a single Recovery Flash Drive on multiple systems. This can overwrite saved settings and lose the ability to restore settings on one or more systems. Also, software licensing requires one Recovery Flash Drive for each system.
Processor upgrade Field Kit. Includes updated Type III CPU carrier module required for advanced features such as ShareFlex. NOT AVAILABLE for K2-SOLO models.
K2 Summit / K2 Solo 9.x Upgrade Field Kit. Includes 9.x system software license, 16GB CompactFlash system drive with image, and 16GB USB recovery ash drive with Acronis backup software and new Windows Embedded System 7 license with Embedded Security Solution. Requires Type II or Type III CPU carrier module.
1. If you are working on a K2 client SAN-attached system, record iSCSI bandwidth settings, so you can recongure after removing and readding to SAN.
2. Make sure you are logged in to the K2 Summit/Solo system with administrator privileges.
3. Connect the USB Recovery Flash Drive to a USB port on the K2 Summit/Solo system.
4. On the USB Recovery Flash Drive, navigate to the following location:
