To Download the Software Update to Your AVM 2:
1. First of all, find out which Software Version you currently have by pressing the Status button on the
Front Panel of your AVM 2.
2. Go to the AVM 2 page on the SONIC FRONTIERS web site (
www.sonicfrontiers.com
) and locate the
latest AVM 2 Software Version Update. Compare it to your Software Version. Proceed only if your
version is a lower number (indicating that it is older).
3.
With a PC do the following:
a) Using your computer’s mouse, right click on the download icon. You will then be asked where
to save a file called ‘AVM 2 Software Update.exe’ – save it to your computer’s desktop.
b) Once complete, click on the downloaded file on your desktop and it will self-extract to a folder
called ‘AVM 2 Software Update’. You may be asked where to save this folder – save it to your
desktop also. You may then delete (recycle bin) the ‘AVM 2 Software Update.exe’ file.
4.
With a MAC do the following:
a) Using your computer’s mouse, double click on the download icon. You will then be asked
where to save a file called ‘AVM 2 Software Update.sit’ – save it to your computer’s desktop.
b) Once complete, it will immediately self-extract to a folder called ‘AVM 2 Software Update,’
which will be placed on your desktop. You may then delete (trash) the AVM 2 S o f t w a re
Update.sit file.
5. Ensure that your current AVM 2 Setup configuration is saved (see section 7.4.10).
6. Turn your AVM 2 off and
disconnect the power cord
to prevent the possibility of a static discharge
when the serial port is connected. Your tuner presets, speaker level settings, bass/treble, etc. are
automatically written to memory if the line voltage is disconnected or during a power failure.
7. Using the serial cable (and adapters for MAC), connect your computer to the AVM 2 to via the 9-pin
female RS-232 port on the Rear Panel. Updating does not re q u i re moving the AVM 2 or
disconnecting it from your system, as long as you can connect your computer to the RS-232 port.
8. The AC power cord of the AVM 2 must then be plugged back in, but MAIN or ZONE2 power does
not have to be turned on.
9. Open the AVM 2 Software Update folder. The ‘Read Me First’ file lists software changes for this
Version and outlines the most current instructions on how to load the Software Upgrade into your
AVM 2.
10. Click (PC) or double click (Mac) on the file called AVM 2 Version 1.xx. Install in the AVM 2 Software
Update folder. Click on the Install Upgrade Now button. In a few minutes the install and verification
will be completed. The AVM 2 will then turn itself OFF for a forced re-boot.
11. Once complete you may disconnect the serial cable from the Rear Panel if you wish.
12. Turn on the AVM 2 and adjust the current time (see section 7.4.7 menu 7.e).
13.
Restore Settings?
You do not need to Restore or Recall any settings after the Update procedure. The
AVM 2 will retain the settings that were in use before the Update. You will, however, have to adjust
the Current Time, since the internal clock is not active while the AVM 2 is unplugged or while the
Update procedure is in progress. See section 7.4.7, setup menu 7.e, to adjust the Current Time.
