Firmware Upgrade Page

The Firmware Upgrade page provides a way to replace the firmware that is coded on the MKP’s control board without taking the MKP out of service, opening the enclosure, and replacing the firmware chip. Access the Firmware Upgrade page (figure 5-6) by clicking the Configuration tab and then the Firmware Upgrade link on the left side of the System Settings page.

Passwords

Figure 5-5 — Passwords page

The fields on the Passwords page are for entering and verifying administrator and user passwords. Passwords are case sensitive and are limited to 12 uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters. Each password must be entered twice; once in the Password field and then again in the Re-enter Password field. Characters in these fields are masked (•••••). If you do not

want to password protect an access level, leave the Password field and the Re-Enter Password field blank. All changes made on the Port Settings must be confirmed by clicking the Submit button. Clicking the Cancel button abandons the changes.

An administrator password must be created before a user password can be created.

To clear an existing password (so that no password is required), enter a space in the Password and Re-enter Password fields and click the Submit button.

When you have connected multiple MKPs to control a switcher through a primary MKP control panel, do not set a user password on the primary MKP.
