Updating DSP Firmware (Continued) 

 

 

Step 3:

 Wait for the Firmware transfer to complete. When finished, control will be returned to the dialog window. Select “Done”.

 

Note: If you are installing the DSP Firmware into a multiple module Array set up for Master/Slave operation, disconnect the signal cable 

from its normal connection to the Master (lower) module and insert it into the Primary Ethernet input on one of the Slave (upper) modules 

and reset the Dip Switches on the Slave module to designate it as a Master (set to 00). Then proceed to update its DSP Firmware just as 

you did for the lower module. Repeat for all the Slave modules.

When the new DSP Firmware transfer is complete to all the modules, select Done. Then disconnect the signal cable from the upper mod-

ule and reconnect it to the lower Master module. Finally, reset the upper module’s dip switches to their original settings.

Please be aware that the Mutes and the Analog Input Pad will be On after the update completes and may need to be reset.

If you are updating the DSP Firmware in an all Master system, you will need to individually update the DSP Firmware in each module.
