Upgrading BIOS on Wyse 5060 thin client

1. Download the Dell BIOS file at www.dell.com/support.
   For example, Wyse_5060_version.bin. The BIOS version may be updated in each release. For the latest version of BIOS, see the latest Dell Wyse ThinOS Release Notes.
2. Log in to Wyse Management Suite.
3. Click Apps & Data.
4. In the OS Image Repository section, click ThinOS.
5. Click Add BIOS file.
   The Add File screen is displayed.

9. From the BIOS platform type, select Wyse 5060 thin client. You can select multiple platforms.
10. Click Upload.
    NOTE: The BIOS file is added to the repository. However, the BIOS file is not assigned to any groups or devices. You must make assignments on the Device Configuration page.
11. Click Groups & Configs.
12. Select a group, and click Edit Policies.

    The Select ThinOS Configuration Mode window is displayed.

    NOTE:

    • When deploying a group policy, you can select multiple BIOS files. However, the policy must reject any duplicate platforms.
    • If two BIOS files are selected, the policy cannot be saved and an error Firmware Upgrade policy contains duplicate platforms for BIOS upgrade is displayed.
    • At Device Level Exception, only BIOS files that have the same platform as the selected device are listed. You can select only a single file.
18. Click Save & Publish.
    If BIOS is already applied, the ThinOS client ignores the BIOS update process. If the BIOS version of the uploaded file does not match the existing BIOS version on the thin client, the BIOS file is successfully downloaded and updated on the thin client.
