Upgrade

In order to update the gate firmware, use the program DMX-Workshop, 

which is available on the Artistic Licence website: 

http://www.artisticlicence.com

Firmware updates are available on the manufacturer's website.

1. In the main menu field select the option [Node List]
2. In the field [Active Art-Net Nodes] select the device to which you want 

to upload the update

3. Right-click the device chosen, selecting in this sequence: 

[Advanced]

[Programme Upload]

[Firmware]

4. Using the “magnifying glass” button located to the right of the update 

access path, download the file with 

*.alf

 extension

5. In the [Compatible Devices] field select again the device to update
6. In order to upload the update, press the button [Upload new Firmware]

NOTE! When installing new software, problems may arise due to the 
Windows

®

 firewall settings. One of the solutions is to completely disable the 

system firewall for the time of uploading the new firmware version. The 
second is to add the DMX-Workshop program to the exceptions in the firewall 
giving all permissions without having to completely disable the firewall 
(screen on next page).
