How to Update MemoryFrame Software

When the MemoryFrame is connected to a computer running Digital PixMaster with its USB drivers, the MemoryFrame accepts and processes communication from the computer. Digital PixMaster can update the MemoryFrame’s software image with the new one you downloaded from the Pacific Digital website.

You must first connect your PC to the MemoryFrame with the USB cable that was provided in the box with the unit.

Connect the larger “standard USB” connector to the USB port of the PC. Connect the smaller “mini-USB” connector to the “PC” connector of the MemoryFrame. See Figure 7.

Important! For the PC application (Digital PixMaster) to communicate to your MemoryFrame, you first need to prepare your MemoryFrame for communicating to a PC, as described in the section below.

Preparing MemoryFrame to Communicate to a PC

The MemoryFrame cannot be managed or communicate with a PC while it is in its menu system mode. In all cases, you must be in photo slideshow display mode for Digital PixMaster to communicate. Exit any on-board button menus and return to displaying the current slideshow. This will place the MemoryFrame in the mode that is required to communicate with the PC.
