A computer running the KissBox Editor is also required to upgrade the CM-MIDI firmware. The CM-MIDI
takes a default address of 192.168.0.253 (subnet mask 255.255.255.0) on the network when it goes into firmware
upgrade mode, so make sure that the network card of your computer is correctly configured.
Before starting,
make sure that there is no other device on your network using this IP address.
•
Disconnect the CM-MIDI power supply for now. Wait until the KissBox Editor Wizard tells you to connect it
back
•
Connect the CM-MIDI to the network (still with power supply not connected!)
•
Start the KissBox Editor
•
Click on “Upload firmware” menu (Windows version) or “Tools / Firmware uploader” (Mac version)
The Upload Wizard window will then open.
Simply follow the instructions given in the Wizard to upload a new firmware in the CM-MIDI:
•
Using a pen tip or a small screwdriver, push
and hold
the small pushbutton located behind the CM-MIDI
front panel (5).
•
While the push-button is being hold, connect the USB power supply to the CM-MIDI
•
Wait until the blue LED blinks fast. This indicates that the CM-MIDI is now in bootloader mode and ready
for firmware upgrade. You can now release the push-button
•
Click “Next” button on the Upload Wizard. The instructions given in the various pages are the same as
given here before
•
When the file browsing window opens, locate the firmware file that you have previously downloaded from
the website (it's a “.kb3” file)
•
Click on “OK” and waits while the firmware is being uploaded
•
When the file transfer is completed, the CM-MIDI will restart with the new firmware. You can now close the
KissBox Editor if you do not need to perform further configuration.
