Appendix A - Upgrading the Firmware
Overview
The NetLinx Studio software application (available for free download from www.amx.com) provides the ability to transfer KIT files to
NetLinx devices such as DXLink Transmitters and Receivers. The firmware on the Transmitters and Receivers can be upgraded in the
field.
When a Transmitter and/or a Receiver are being used in conjunction with a switcher, the switcher’s integrated Master is used for
the KIT file transfer. FIG. 40 shows a Transmitter and a Receiver bound to the integrated Master in an Enova DGX 32 in NetLinx
Studio’s OnLine Tree. Follow the instructions on the top of page 88 to prepare for KIT file transfer and the instructions on page 90
for the actual transfer.
