Clicking onto “Start Update” starts the upgrade procedure. The single steps of the update are shown in the
“Messages” window. The progress of some parts of the upgrade which take a little longer is indicated through
dots behind the corresponding name. The message “ok” has to appear at the end of each line. The following
example shows how to upgrade the firmware of the remote amp with the address 1 to firmware version V 1.01.

The message “Finishing .. ok” indicates that upgrading has been successful. The remote amp(s) are reset. After-
wards they are again ready for operation. The upgrade procedure is finished and you can close the dialog window
or proceed with upgrading other remote amps.
ADDITIONAL NOTES CONCERNING A FIRMWARE UPGRADE
–
The line “Active Devices” indicates which of the selected remote amps are still to be updated. Amps for which the
update process timed out are taken off the list. These devices are still capable of receiving upgrade commands.
However, the software does not wait for acknowledgements of the concerned amps any longer.
–
If the IRIS-Net-software recognizes an error or “Time Out” during upgrading, it automatically switches to “Single
Step” mode, which offers the possibility to repeat the upgrade in single steps. If a “Time Out” message is
displayed while upgrading is in progress, under no circumstance switch off any amps!
–
As soon as “Single Step” is checked off, all buttons below the single step field become active. The upgrade can
now be performed manually, step- by-step in the sequence as described below. If one of the commands does not
finish “ok”, you have to restart the upgrade procedure from the beginning.
