SOFTWARE UPDATE
Software Update Using LumLoader Application
Introduction
The LumLoader application allows you to update the software in a Best Boy HP Luminaire. The update will be sent
over an Ethernet connection. The luminaire can take the Ethernet input directly, or the update can be translated to
DMX512 signal with an appropriate device, either Series 400® or a PRG Node (with the required software update).
The fixtures can be daisy-chained to load multiple fixtures at once.
Supported configurations:
Note:
There should be no active control (DMX512 or Ethernet) during the update process.
Preparation - Java
The loader (LumLoader) is a Java application which can be run on a Mac or a PC computer.
Note:
Microsoft Windows® and new Mac computers do not come with the required Java run-time library installed, so
you may need to go to the Sun website (java.com/getjava/) to download Java.
Selecting an Ethernet Interface
Connect the computer to the system, and start the LumLoader application. When the application starts, it will ask
which active Ethernet port should be used. Select the appropriate port. You may be able to differentiate the ports by
IP address, compared with your network setup. Typically the en0 is the first built-in Ethernet port, and other interfaces
could include additional network ports or wireless adapters.
Selecting the Module
The loader can support multiple versions of software, so make sure the appropriate version is selected. The default
version will typically be fine.
Download the Software
Press "Start Download" to initiate the update. You should see the luminaires immediately drop into the startup screen
and erase flash, which takes about 30 seconds. Then the new module is sent out, the screen indicates "Loading",
and when complete they will go back to the main menu and start calibration.
If the fixture already has the update software version, it will not attempt the update.
