How to do an offline software update

If you’re having trouble updating the software online, you can try to update it via the offline method. You’ll need a USB stick or SD Card and a computer to download the update file. Here’s how:

1. Make sure your USB stick or SD Card has at least 1 GB free space, and is formatted as FAT32.
2. Download the update file from this link.
3. Rename it to update.zip (do not unzip this file!)
4. Copy it to the root folder of a USB stick or SD card, and plug it into the PicoPix Max.
5. Go to Settings > Software Update > Offline update to start the update.

Remember: do not power off the projector during update. It’s recommended to keep the projector plugged into power during this time.

Mac users note: By default, macOS automatically unzips archive files downloaded from the web. You should temporarily disable this feature before you download the .zip file by going to Safari > Preferences and turning off this option:
