8 - RS232 SERIAL LINK
A SUB-D 9-pin connector is located at the rear of the player. It allows the SP603 player to use a standard
RS232 serial link. 2 functions are associated to this link:
1 – Updating the player’s firmware to add new functionalities when new developments are made. It
means your MP3 player is evolutive.
2 – You can control your player with external units like remote controls, wireless or not, automated
systems, software remote control on a computer or any unit able to transmit the defined protocol.
Be careful, don’t use a cable with all wires connected as the other pins are used for the infrared sensor.
8.1 Firmware update
The SP603 is an evolutive product and it will have new features added in the future.
To update the firmware, you need a RS232 cable like the one in the upper illustration. Be careful,
firmware update is an important procedure.
NEVER SWITCH OFF THE PLAYER BEFORE THE END OF THE TRANSFER.
- Download the “Boot Manager” software on our site, www.id-al.com
- Download the software version you need to transfer.
- Switch off the player and connect the RS232 cable.
- Launch the “Boot Manager” program and select the “xxxxx.HEX” file for the desired version.
- If “Auto Upload” is checked, transfer will start when the player is switched on, otherwise, press the
“Upload HEX File to Micro” button.
At the end of the transfer, switch off the
player and unplug the cable.
