Overview

features will be stored directly on the CPU Boards. The CPU Boards will still have a socket for the iButton but will have a “NOT USED” decal included (see image below).
IMPORTANT: The iButton is still needed for consoles with software version 10.B or prior.

Migrating a TLS-450 to a TLS-450PLUS Console

Migration kits are no longer available for purchase. Last time buy was December 31, 2021. However, if you have a migration kit, follow these steps to migrate a TLS-450 to a TLS-450PLUS console.

1. Create a backup of the TLS-450 using the thumb drive provided in the kit.
2. Install the new CPU and SD card.

IMPORTANT: Do not move iButton to the new CPU.

3. Restore the TLS-450 back-up into the TLS-450PLUS.

Note: In some circumstances, a “Media Access Error” may occur but will clear once the database restore is complete.
