Why You’d Use It

The new Check for Updates button now makes it easier for you to know whether or not your device is operating on the latest software version. Avive’s remote software updates provide you with new features and device capabilities regularly, so it’s important to be able to quickly check for any available updates and ensure you are on the latest software.

Please note, your device will automatically check for and receive any new software updates that are available during your device’s nightly self test – you do not need to manually press this button to receive new software updates. The Check for Updates button simply allows you to check and make sure you’re on the latest software. It also enables you to request the latest download immediately if there is an update available instead of waiting for the nightly self-test.

Power Bank Mode should only be turned ON if you are using the Avive Portable Power Bank accessory. If you are interested in learning more about the portable power bank or would like to purchase one to store and charge your Avive Connect AEDs without a power outlet, please contact support@avive.life or give us a call at 1 (800) 489 – 4428.
