6. SOFTWARE UPDATING continued …

Software installation procedure:

1.Find out which Software version you currently have by pressing STATUS.

2.Go to the ANTHEM web site (www.anthemAV.com) and locate the latest AVM 50 Software version. Proceed only if your version is a lower number, indicating that it is older.

3.Click on the download icon. You will be asked where to save a file called ‘avm50v1.zip’ – save it to your computer’s desktop.

4.Double click on ‘avm50v1.zip’. If you computer tells you that the file cannot be opened, you can download a program that can open the file through one of the links on the ANTHEM web site.

5.Drag or extract ‘AVM 50 Installer.exe’ and ‘Read Me First.txt’ to desktop. ‘Read Me First.txt’ lists the latest software changes. You can now delete ‘avm50v1.zip’.

6.Ensure that your current AVM 50 Setup configuration is saved (see section 3.12).

7.Turn off all HDMI-connected equipment and disconnect the AVM 50’s power cord to prevent the possibility of a static discharge when the serial port is connected. Tuner presets, speaker level settings, bass/treble, etc. are automatically written to memory if the line voltage is disconnected or during a power failure.

8.Using the serial cable, connect your computer to the AVM 50 via the RS-232 port on the rear panel. Updating does not require moving the AVM 50 or disconnecting it from your system, as long as you can connect your computer to the RS-232 port.

9.Plug the AVM 50’s power cord back in and turn the rear panel switch on.

10.Double click on ‘AVM 50 Installer.exe’, then click on ‘Install Upgrade Now’. In a few minutes, the installation and verification will be completed.

Restore Settings?

You do not need to Restore or Recall any settings after installing new software. The AVM 50 will retain the settings that were in use before the update, except that the day and time will be set according to your computer’s day and time settings – if re-adjustment is required, see section 3.1.

Troubleshooting:

If the Installer keeps returning a message that says ‘AVM 50 Not Found’ after several attempts, restore Factory Defaults in the Setup Menu, try installing again, and reload User Settings once the new software is installed. If that doesn’t work, make sure that the serial port on your computer isn't already being used by another application, such a docking station for a personal organizer – you must go into the application that is using it to turn off the serial port.
