> [!NOTE]
> **NOTE**:
> 
> - If the upgrade is interrupted, the device will retry automatically. If more than six minutes pass, the uploaded file may become invalid. In that case, re-upload the firmware file and restart the upgrade.
> - If multiple IR controllers are connected to the same HyPanel device, you only need to upload the firmware once to upgrade all of them.
