From the Internet, you can download the program (firmware)
managing the product functions to use the latest functions
(Firmware upgrade or revision up).
Note
• When you have started a firmware upgrade process, be
sure not to perform any other operations until the process is
completed and the product restarts. Doing so stops the upgrade
process and the product may become inoperable. Should this
occur, please contact your retailer.
• During the firmware upgrade process, lamps on the front panel
other than the POWER lamp flash in turn.
• All communications are disconnected during the upgrade
process.
• Be sure not to remove cables during the upgrade process.
Doing so may cause the product to be inoperable. Should this
occur, please contact your retailer.
• In the “Execute revision up” screen of “Basic configuration
page”, the firmware can be upgraded only to a formally-
released revision. When using “Basic configuration page”,
you cannot upgrade the firmware to a beta version for which
Yamaha does not formally assure normal operation.
Tip
If you change the “Allow for revision down” setting to “allow”
on the “Execute revision up” screen of “Basic configuration
page”, you can downgrade the firmware to an older version
(Revision down). Please refer to the Help on the “Execute
revision up” screen for more information.
