Updating the Firmware

The firmware upgrade utility provides a way to replace the firmware that is coded on the control board of the switcher without taking the switcher out of service.

NOTE: Upgrading the firmware does not overwrite the current configuration or presets.

Update the switcher firmware as follows:

1.Perform steps 1 through 5 of Installing the Software, on page 111, to download the firmware upgrade from the Extron website, www.extron.com.

2.Click Run in the File Download and Security Warning dialog boxes (see figure 68 on the next page). The PC downloads the firmware update from the Extron website and starts the Extron Installation Program to extract the firmware file.

3.Click Next. The program extracts the firmware files and places them in a folder identified in the InstallShield Wizard window.

NOTES:

•Note the folder to which the firmware file is saved. When downloaded from the Extron website, the firmware is placed in a subfolder of:

•Windows 7 or Windows 8: C:\Program Files (x86)\Extron\Firmware.

•Older versions: C:\Program Files\Extron\Firmware.

•The original factory-installed firmware is permanently available on the matrix switcher. If the attempted firmware upload fails, the switcher reverts to the factory-installed firmware.

4.Click Finish to exit the program.
