• Downloading Firmware
4. Download a HP-A8 firmware update file from the Fostex Company web site <www.fostex.com> onto the PC /
Macintosh desktop. Since the downloaded file is zip compressed, extract it. If you do so, a folder in which two
files "HP-A8.***" and "SYS_A8.***" are included will be created. The "***" section indicates the firmware ver-
sion number. For example,
if the firmware version is
1.10, each file name will be
"HP-A8.110" and "SYS_
A8.110" respectively.
5. Paste the two extracted files
("HP-A8.***" and "SYS_
A8.***") onto the root
directory of the SD card
without creating any fold-
ers.
• Updating Firmware
6. Turn the HP-A8 power ON.
7. Rotate the INPUT select button (input sel) to set the HP-A8 input to "COX".
