Updating Mio R-4 Firmware Through USB

To update the main firmware for the Mio R-4:

1. Connect the Mio R-4 to your computer via the USB programming jack (FIG.21).

2. Open NetLinx Studio.

3. Connect to the Virtual NetLinx Master.

4. Select Tools > Firmware Transfer.

5. Choose the firmware file to be transferred.

6. Enter the Mio R-4’s Device ID.

7. Select Send.

8. The unit reboots after the upgrade and enters un-archiving mode, during which the AMX logo is

displayed and the POWER LED continuously flashes. The unit reboots again after un-archiving

with the new firmware running.

If you know that remote communication needs to be made through ZigBee after

rebooting, change the Master Connection Type to Mesh after the download.

If the Mio R-4's connection icon does not turn green within 10-15 seconds of enabling

the virtual NetLinx master ("Refresh System" in NetLinx Studio, "Connect..." in

TPDesign4), unplug the device for at least 5 seconds and then reconnect it.

If you are using the Mio R-4 in conjunction with other ZigBee-enabled devices, such

as the Mio R-3 and the NXA-ZGW wireless gateway, you should update the ZigBee

firmware to all of the ZigBee devices at the same time.
