NetLinx Firmware Upgrades
Overview
The NetLinx Studio software application (available for free download from www.amx.com) provides the
ability to transfer KIT firmware files to a NetLinx device such as the DVX.
To send firmware files in NetLinx Studio, select
Tools > Firmware Transfers > Send to NetLinx Device
.
Before You Start
1.
Verify you have the latest version of NetLinx Studio on your PC. Use the
Web Update
option in NetLinx
Studio’s Help menu to obtain the latest version. Alternatively, go to www.amx.com and login as a Dealer
to download the latest version.
2.
Go to
www.amx.com
and download the latest Firmware file. Firmware files are available to download
from www.amx.com - on the product’s page in the online catalog.
3.
Verify that an Ethernet cable is connected from the DVX to the Ethernet Hub.
4.
Verify that the DVX is powered On.
5.
Determine the Device Number assigned to the target DVX.
By default, the Device Number assigned to the DVX is
0
(zero). (The Master device number is
always 0 and cannot be changed.)
The Device Number can be viewed on the DVX Configuration Manager - Device Configuration
page.
6.
Launch NetLinx Studio and open the Online Device Tree.
Sending Firmware (*.KIT) Files to the DVX
Use the
Firmware Transfers
options in the Tools menu to update the firmware in the DVX. NetLinx Devices
such as the DVX use KIT files for firmware upgrades.
The Online Device Tree (Online Tree tab of the Workspace Window) displays information about
each online device, including the current firmware version.
Before attempting to upgrade the firmware, you must have the appropriate Kit file for your
DVX-3150HD.
The DVX contains three devices which each require a separate Kit file. These three devices must be
kept at compatible firmware versions for proper operation.
• Device ID 0: NetLinx Master Controller
• Default Device ID 5001: Device Control Ports
• Default Device ID 5002: A/V Switcher/Scaler
A Kit file (*.KIT) is a package of several files, all of which are required to upgrade the
firmware, and are available online via www.amx.com. Firmware download links are
provided in the relevant product page.
