5.1. Connected Updates

First, the MeasureReady™ M81-SSM must be connected to the internet via the ethernet interface.

Lake Shore recommends enabling the “Notify when updates are available” setting to ensure your M81-SSM is up-to-date with the latest features and updates. If used with a valid network connection, the M81-SSM will display a notification on the notification bar as soon as an update is available, but will not apply the update until instructed.
