element upgrade to 6K

Question

Our element classic was upgraded to windows 7 some years ago. 
 Is it possible to upgrade it to 6K outputs?

Mathilda is correct. Element (1 / Classic) only has 1024 Outputs. Its Base Configuration has 250 Channels (1024 Outouts/DMX Addresses), and can get an upgrade to 500 Channels (1024 Outputs/ DMX Addresses). Element (1/Classic) Consoles had upgrades of Channels and not Outputs. On our ETC Website, there is a Support Article explaining the Max Outputs for all Eos Family Consoles here:

As far as i can read in the Manual on page 75 i would say no, because Element classic never will output 6k Parameters.

 System Specs on the ETC Webside say so as well.

 So i would say, no. The max Output for Element classic never was higher than 1k.
