You need an usb stick to install this image.

To install the image:
- Unzip the attached file and copy the folder "vuplus" into an usb stick FAT 32 formatted;
- Connect the usb stick to the DUO (it have to be power off by the switch on the rear);
- Power on the DUO by the switch and follow the instruction you will see on display;
- After upgraded the image, remove the usb stick and reboot the DUO.

Before to install this image you need to upgrade your Duo boot loader:
