Upgrading the MVX-A16 card
This chapter describes how to upgrade the MVX-A16 analog port card, which is fitted to
the Eclipse HX-Median, Eclipse HX-Omega and Eclipse HX-Delta matrices.
Note:
This guide is laid out in the order in which you must upgrade your Eclipse HX software
and hardware devices. For a quick reference to upgrading your system, see
Quick reference: Upgrading to Eclipse HX

7.2
Upgrading the MVX-A16 MK I or MK II boot
and/or app code
If you are upgrading from ECS v5.2.5, Clear-Com recommends upgrading the MVX-A16
card with the
combined
MVX boot and application code file (
*.mot
), using the Renesas
Flash Development Tool (FDT).
If you are upgrading an existing Eclipse HX installation, you can upgrade:
•
The MVX application code separately (
*.fwc
), using EHX.
•
The MVX boot code separately (
*.mot
), using the Renesas FDT method.
•
The MVX boot and application code simultaneously, using the Renesas FDT method and the
combined MVX boot and application code file (
*.mot
).
