Firmware Updates
Firmware is embedded software in each component that controls functionality. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate additional
features and enhancements. To take advantage of design improvements, new versions of the firmware can be uploaded and installed using the Shure Update
Utility. Software is available for download from http://www.shure.com.
Important:
When components are connected through the Shure MXW Audio Network Interface, their firmware must be updated on one device at a time prior
to updating the MXW Audio Network Interface firmware. Attempting to update all devices at once will cause the interface to reboot after its firmware is updated,
and the connection to other networked components will be lost.
Perform the following steps to update the firmware:
CAUTION!
Ensure the device has a stable network connection during the update. Do not turn off the device until the update is complete.
1. Connect the device and computer to the same network (set to the same subnet).
2. Download Shure Update Utility app and install it.
3. Open the application.
4. Click
Check For Updates...
button to view new firmware versions available for download.
5. Select the desired firmware and press
Download
to download it to the Firmware Library.
6. From the
Update Devices
tab, select the new firmware and press
Send Updates...
to begin the firmware update, which overwrites the existing firmware on
the device.
Firmware Release Requirements
All devices comprise a network with multiple communications protocols that work together to ensure proper operation. The recommended best practice is that
all devices are on an identical release. To view the firmware version of each device on the network, open the component user interface, and look under Set-
tings>About.
The format for Shure device’s firmware is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. (Ex. 1.6.2 where 1 is the Major firmware level, 6 is the Minor firmware level, and 2 is the
Patch firmware level.) At minimum, devices that operate on the same subnet should have identical MAJOR and MINOR release numbers.
•
Devices of different MAJOR releases are not compatible.
•
Differences in the PATCH firmware release level may introduce undesired inconsistencies.
Parametric Equalizer
Maximize audio quality by adjusting the frequency response with the parametric equalizer.
Common equalizer applications:
•
Improve speech clarity
•
Reduce noise from HVAC systems or video projectors
•
Reduce room irregularities
•
Adjust frequency response for reinforcement systems
Setting Filter Parameters
Adjust filter settings by manipulating the icons in the frequency response graph, or by entering numeric values. Disable a filter using the check-box next to the
filter.
Filter Type
Only the first and last band have selectable filter types.
Parametric:
Attenuates or boosts the signal within a customizable frequency range
Low Cut:
Rolls off the audio signal below the selected frequency
Low Shelf:
Attenuates or boosts the audio signal below the selected frequency
High Cut:
Rolls off the audio signal above the selected frequency
High Shelf:
Attenuates or boosts the audio signal above the selected frequency
Frequency
Select the center frequency of the filter to cut/boost
Gain
Adjusts the level for a specific filter (+/- 30 dB)
Q Width
Adjusts the range of frequencies affected by the filter. As this value increases, the bandwidth becomes thinner.
