Configuring Region Settings
Use the Region tab to configure the following settings:
GMT Zone : This sets the time zone relative to Greenwich Mean Time. Default is -0800 (Pacific Standard Time). Enter your
local time zone in relation to GMT. If Sync Network Date Time is set to Yes, the player time will be set according to the GMT
Zone entered. (Note: Automatic switching to Daylight Savings Time is not supported.)

: If you set to Yes, then the system automatically gets the date and time from the network (if
connected). If set to No, then you must manually enter the date and time.
Date : Use on-screen keyboard to enter date in the format yyyy/mm/dd (e.g., 2011/07/05).
Time : Use on-screen keyboard to enter the current time in the format hh:mm:ss AM or PM (e.g., 10:33:46 AM)
3.5 Updating the Firmware
Warning! Do not remove power while the firmware is updating. Doing so can leave the player in an unusable state, requiring it be
returned to MTI for repair.
If you have a player with older firmware, you can update the player’s firmware using a USB flash drive. Please contact MTI for the
latest firmware file and then update the player using the steps below:
1
Using a PC, make a copy of the new firmware and name it fw.bin . Copy this file to the root directory of the USB flash drive.
2
Plug the USB flash drive into the player.
3
Access the Setup Menu (see page 11) and select the Action tab.
4
Select
Firmware Upgrade
.
Note: If the dialog box says ‘Firmware Not Found’ select ‘Close’, wait a few seconds, then select Firmware Upgrade
again. It takes a few seconds for the player to confirm a valid fw.bin file.
5
When the ‘Firmware Found’ dialog box appears, it displays the version currently loaded in the player as well as the version
on the USB drive. Make sure you are upgrading to the desired version, then select
Flash .
6
The player automatically updates the firmware.
7
The player automatically reboots when done.
8
Remove USB flash drive when finished.
