Software Updates.
The functions of your m3po may conveniently be updated from time to time. As with many
other hard and software products, upgrades are provided by TerraTec Electronic GmbH over
the Internet – usually free of charge. Alternatively, we can send you the upgrade on CD-ROM
subject to a minimal charge
Our web-address is:

Installing updates.
Upgrading the m3po is very simple thanks to an improved monitor function (version 2.0 and
later). If you have downloaded the upgrade from the Internet, you will find the file
M3POOSxxx.EXE
(where
x
stands for the version number), which can be run under Win-
dows. After running the program, you will find a number of files with the .BIN extension. Copy
these files to CD and ensure, that they are directly on the root directory, and not hidden away
in folders! It is possible to burn other data onto the CD (i.e. more songs) and use the one CD
for a multi-session.
Note for users of other operating systems (i.e. Linux): The .EXE file should show up in your zip
files and can be unpacked manually
Depending on which m3po OS version you are updating from, just follow the steps:
