Update
Check for updates to the Timecode
Buddy: wifi master firmware and also
send firmware updates to your Timecode
Buddy: tx using Timecode Buddy: web
view to configure your network connection.
*IMPORTANT* Always power the Buddy: wifi master via external
power and also have a fresh set of AA batteries installed during
updates & don’t attempt whilst on set and in a rush.
• Click on ‘configure WiFi’ of web view page.
• Scan for wireless networks, choose a known network and type in the
network security key if needed. Be very careful to input key correctly. iOS
devices may try to capitalize the first letter. Your Timecode Buddy: wifi
master will automatically switch to connect to this infrastructure network.
This can take up to two minutes. Web View will no longer be connected
to your buddy.
• The Timecode Buddy will flash ‘WiFi Connected’ once it’s been given an
IP address by the router.
• Scroll through the information screen on your Timecode Buddy: wifi
master to check it’s connected to the correct network and has got a new
IP address.
• Go to ‘System Settings’ on your Timecode Buddy: wifi master and press
the button in the ‘Check for Update’ menu option.
• The display will show either ‘Update not required’ or ‘Loading program,
Saving program, loading tx, loading HTML’ etc. Wait until the program is
saved and restarts. This process will repeat until the buddy has checked
file integrity
• From the WiFI menu, restore WiFi mode back to Ad-Hoc for normal
operation.
Once the Buddy: wifi master has logged onto a secure network
connection it will automatically remember the network key. Therefore
for future updates via the same internet connection, the Timecode
Buddy: web view is not needed. Just change the Buddy: wifi master to
infrastructure network mode and check for updates once connected
and given a new IP address.
