Upgrading CPU Card U53 CPLD
The U53 image that was embedded in the CPU card firmware image (for upgrade
purposes) had to be removed at v8.8. However, the U53 image specified in in the 9.0
firmware release note still needs to be installed on the CPU card to run the 9.0
application.
If the CPU card supports the embedded (DIP switch based) upgrade (see below) and U53
needs upgrading, then temporarily install the CPLD upgrader application CPU card image
found on the software release USB and follow the steps below for the duration of the
CPLD upgrade. Note
–
this also applies to the UI CPLD upgrade.
The CPLD upgrader CPU card image can be found next to the official fully featured CPU
card application on the software disk in the following folder.

CPLD Updater
Once the CPLD upgrade is complete install the 9.0 CPU card application and complete
the remainder of the matrix software and firmware upgrade to 9.0.
The CPU card U53 upgrade can be performed any time after the CPLD upgrader CPU card
firmware has been loaded into the card.
The U53 firmware image is embedded in the CPLD upgrader CPU card firmware image
and therefore no additional download from EHX is required.
