Software Upgrades on CD

The DMC-1 Flash memory software can be upgraded by connecting your PC to the DMC-1 RS-232 serial port, and downloading an update file from our website: www.emotiva.com. This is the preferred method, as the software can be updated relatively fast and the latest version is always available.

Alternatively, the DMC-1 flash memory can be upgraded using a CD from the Technical Support team at Emotiva. This CD will be available periodically when there are major software changes since the initial release. Specific instructions for this procedure will be included with the software CD.
