5. Navigate to the folder where you saved the ﬁrmware upgrade ﬁle. Select the ﬁle.

NValid ﬁrmware ﬁles must have the ﬁle extension .S19. Any other ﬁle extension is not a ﬁrmware upgrade.

NThe original factory-installed ﬁrmware is permanently available on the

MVX 128 A switcher. If the attempted ﬁrmware upload fails for any reason, the switcher reverts to the factory-installed ﬁrmware.

6. Click the Open button. A status window, which shows the progress of the upload, appears (ﬁgure 5-5). The ﬁrmware upload to the MVX 128 A switcher may take a few minutes.

Figure 5-5 — Firmware Loader status indicator bar, switcher reset, and ﬁrmware update

NIf the ﬁrmware loader utility exits before the status bar has progressed completely across the indicator window, try using a control cable with only pins 2, 3, and 5 connected. If necessary, modify the cable by removing pins or cutting wires.

7.	When prompted, conﬁrm that the ﬁrmware version displayed in the ﬁrmware
	loader is correct. Click Ok in the Firmware Update prompt window.
8.	Click the Exit button to exit the ﬁrmware loader utility.

NThe ﬁrmware loader utility increases the serial port’s baud rate to 115,200 to speed up the upload process. Occasionally, the ﬁrmware loader may be unable to return the serial port to its earlier baud rate, in which case communications with the switcher may not be possible. If you are no longer able to communicate with the switcher after the ﬁrmware upload completes, see Selecting the RS-232/RS-422 protocol and baud rate in chapter 3, Operation, on

page 3-33.
