Updating the Handheld Operating System

When you install or update the TI-Nspire™ CX Premium Teacher Software with an Access Point attached or by selecting Window > Enable TI Nspire CX Navigator, the Startup dialog box opens when you launch the software for the first time. You must update all student and classroom handhelds to the latest operating system.

Complete the following steps to ensure all handhelds are updated.

If the OS for all connected handhelds matches the software version, the Handheld OS Update dialog box is displayed informing you that all handhelds are up to date. Click Close to return to the Startup dialog box.

If you cannot connect all handhelds at one time, connect as many as possible and update the OS. After the OS update is complete, disconnect the handhelds and repeat the OS update process until all handhelds are updated. The software will detect the OS needed and begin the transfer as you connect the handhelds.
