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 Pacific Digital website to your 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”

Important! When the progress bar shown in Digital PixMaster is complete, it only signifies that the file has been transferred, and it is just the beginning of the MemoryFrame’s actual process of updating its firmware.

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.

When the MemoryFrame receives the updated firmware file, the MemoryFrame will erase the current firmware portion of its memory and program in the new firmware image. You must wait up to three (3) minutes for the frame to complete the software upgrade.

Important! Do not unplug or cut power to the MemoryFrame or PC during the upgrade process! A loss of power could erase both old and new operating systems, leaving the MemoryFrame inoperable.

The MemoryFrame will display the following sequence of messages to show the progress of the firmware update:

“FLASH BEING ERASED”

“FLASH BEING LOADED”

“READING FLASH”

“VERIFYING FLASH”
