Updating firmware
The firmware upgrade utility provides a way to replace the firmware that is coded
on the switcher’s control board without taking the switcher out of service.
N
The Firmware Loader must be installed on your computer to perform this
operation. Extron recommends that you install this program when you install
the Matrix Switchers Control Program. If you did not, it can be downloaded
from the Extron Web site,
www.extron.com
, and installed separately.

The update firmware utility is for replacing the firmware that controls all
switcher operation. This is not the window to insert your custom HTML pages.
