Appendix 3 - Firmware Updates

As a responsible manufacturer, HHB adopts a policy of continuous product development. As with all software-based products, it may be desirable from time to time to update the firmware in your CDR-882 with a more recent version. You can contact your HHB dealer or distributor, or visit the HHB website at www.hhb.co.uk for details.

Firmware updates are downloadable from the HHB website, or if you prefer, from your local dealer/distributor on a CD. Alternatively, if you are uncertain about performing a firmware update yourself, take your CDR-882 to your HHB dealer, who will be happy to do it for you.

Performing a firmware update restores all menu settings to their original factory defaults. If you are used to using your CDR-882 for one particular type of work, it may be worthwhile checking through the menus and noting the current settings so that they can be easily restored after the update.

Updating the firmware requires a PC or Mac fitted with a CD- (or DVD-) writer drive, and a CD-writing software application. We recommend you read through the instructions below before performing an update for the first time.

To perform a firmware update, proceed as follows:

Download the new firmware from www.hhb.co.uk. It will be in the form of a .wav file. Save it to a suitable location

Using the CD burning application you have on your computer (such as Nero or Roxio), create a CD containing the .wav file. The CD must be an audio CD, not a data CD, and the .wav file must be the only track on the CD

Turn on the CDR-882, put the burnt disc into Drive1 and close the tray. Note that the update CD must be the first CD loaded after power is applied to the unit; if there is already a disc in Drive 1, remove it first and reboot the CDR-882 (turn it off and then back on) before loading the update CD

After the disc has been read, a dialogue screen will be displayed asking for confirmation to update the firmware. Press RECORD to continue or STOP to abort

The firmware update will now proceed automatically. The progress of the update procedure is displayed by the L bargraph meter. Also, the display will show a succession of messages:

!!!Updating OS !!!

Do not disturb power

Erasing flash completed

Writing flash completed

!!! Reboot !!!

During the update procedure, it is essential that the power supply to the CDR-882 is not interrupted. Should this occur, the unit will be rendered unusable and will require factory re-initialisation

When the disc has been read, the drive tray opens automatically; the disc may now be removed. The disc tray will not close automatically; this is normal

Reboot the unit by powering off, then back on. Further internal file re-writing now takes place; while this is in progress, the front panel may appear to be completely dead. This step may take up to 30 seconds; do not press any buttons while it is proceeding

When the update process is complete, the unit will boot up in the normal way

Note: We cannot guarantee that all CD-writing applications will create a compatible audio CD.
