Just extract the uniprom zip file to a folder such as "c:\uniprom". The firmware image is
called “eeprom.img" which needs to be in the same folder.
If you use a COM port other than COM1, edit the "uniprom.bat" file's "-p #" parameter.
The name of the file is always "eeprom.img".
Connect WavBox player RS232 connection to COM 1 on the computer (see note above on
how to select a port other than COM 1).
Remove SD Card from the WavBox.
Remove the 4 screws securing the lid.
Move S8 (Run/Prog) switch to the Prog position.
Reset board, by pressing the reset button or removing and restoring power.
Move S8 (Run/Prog) switch to the Run position.
Double click on the “uniprom.bat" file to launch the programmer.
o
You can also open a command
prompt and run “uniprom”
from there, using this method
means that the command
window will not close when it
has completed the procedure. A
command prompt short cut is
included in the uniprom folder
(assumes running from
“c:uniprom”)
The programmer will perform various
checks before opening the
“eeprom.img” file and programming
and then verifying the installation.
Once complete reboot the player.
You may notice that the left/right balance is incorrect after firmware update. To correct
this raise the volume to maximum (when maximum is reached an audible blip will be
heard). The volume can now be returned to the required setting.
Progamming and
verifying stage.
