Appendix D 

Upgrading/Re-installing Casablanca IV Software 

 
 

The most dynamic parts of Casablanca IV’s internal operating system and supporting files are stored in flash memory 
and are therefore easily updateable via an IBM compatible PC. 
 
To install new software into the Casablanca IV, first the “Downloader” software must be installed on a local PC. 
 
Instructions  for  this  installation  are  included  with  the  CD  ROM.    This  software  is  referred  to  as  Theta  Digital 
Downloader (TDD) x.xx, where x.xx is the version number.  The latest version of TDD as well as the latest CB3 Flash 
files themselves are available from Theta Digital, through a Theta Digital authorized dealer or on the Theta website 
(

www.thetadigital.com

) in the Library/Downloads section. 

 
When TDD “connects”, it will take over control of the Casablanca IV.  When updating it will read and store the internal 
hardware configuration and user settings and then update and/or overwrite the flash files on every board.  It will then 
restore the hardware configuration parameters that were set at the factory as well as the user settings. 
 
TDD can  also  save  all  user  settings  to  the  hard  drive  of  a  PC.    This  is  a  highly  recommended  procedure  to  do, 
immediately after  setting up  the  Casablanca  IV  for  the  first  time,  prior  to  updating  the  software,  or  when  making 
changes to the user settings. 
 
When  TDD  is  installed  onto  the  PC,  a  PDF  file  entitled  “Guide  to  Using  TDD”  is  copied  to  the  hard  drive.    This 
document  covers  the  detailed  information  required  to  use  TDD  in  all  of  its  modes.    It  is  recommended  that  this 
document be read through in its entirety before using TDD. 
 
 

Appendix E  Re-installing Casablanca III Settings 
 

Do not attempt to restore settings from a previous generation of the Theta Casablanca to the Casablanca IV using 

Crystal or any other program.   
 

The operating system of the Casablanca IV is not compatible with this program.  Attempts to restore old settings 
will result in severe software corruption that will disable the Casablanca IV and may require reinstallation of the 

operating system at the factory.

  

 

 

Such reinstallation is not covered under Theta’s warranty. 

 
Individual settings from a Casablanca III should be copied manually to a notepad or other document and then 

restored manually using the setup instructions in this manual.
