NORMAL - Updating
With most updates you will be given a document, called “Release Notes”, which explains what has changed
on the new version, and how to load the firmware to your SE-900.
Unless the Release Notes supplied with the update state otherwise select 1: NORMAL.
The NORMAL UPDATE sub menu will be displayed.
The NORMAL sub menu lists the various aspects of the SE-900 firmware that can be updated.
There are six individual categories CONTROLLER, MAIN BOARD, INPUT BOARDS, CHROMA KEY
BOARD (if applicable), OUTPUT BOARDS and AUDIO DELAY & TALLY CTL, plus ALL BOARDs which
updates the entire system.
Highlight the option that you want to update by scrolling down the menu with the Adjustment Knob. Once the
option is highlighted press the RESET Key for 2 seconds, until the Update Script starts to run.
ONCE THE UPDATE SCRIPT IS RUNNING DO NOT INTERUPT THE PROCESS.
Example Update Script -
This will vary according to what you are
updating.
Once the script starts running

interrupt the process until the

Once the update is complete the script will read *** You can ESC ***. Press the ESC Key to return to the
Normal Update Sub Menu.
Once the update is complete you must restart the SE-900 for the new firmware to take effect.
N.B. Please note Update ALL BOARDs can take almost an hour, so make sure you have enough time
to complete the process before you start.
