Next, from the “MemoryFrame” pull-down menu of Digital PixMaster, select “Update Firmware.” Follow the on-screen instructions to point to the updated firmware file (with a “.bin” file extension) that you just downloaded from the Digital Spectrum website to the hard-drive.

After you click on the OPEN box to select the .bin firmware update file, Digital PixMaster will display a progress bar to indicate the transfer of the file to MemoryFrame.

On the MemoryFrame’s LCD screen, the MemoryFrame will display a sequence of messages to show the progress of the firmware update. The first progress message is:

“FIRMWARE BEING DOWNLOADED, PLEASE WAIT”

If a transfer error occurs, the MemoryFrame will display the following message:

“BAD FLASH DOWNLOAD, PLEASE RETRY”

If so, retry the update by select “Update Firmware” from the “MemoryFrame” pull-down menu of Digital PixMaster.
