Updating The Firmware - DAB E.sybox Instrucciones Para La Instalación Y El Mantenimiento

GB
ENGLISH
If the e.sybox units in the group to be created have different firmware ver-
sions, it is necessary to make an update in order to align all the versions.
The update may also be useful to have new firmware available which
adds functions or solves problems.
Definitions used below:
Master: device from which a firmware is taken to load it in an e.sybox.
The function may be fulfilled by an e.sybox, an e.sylink or any other
device enabled for downloading firmware to an e.sybox.
Slave: e.sybox in the state of receiving a firmware update.

11.2 - Updating the firmware

The firmware can be updated by means of another e.sybox or by e.sylink.
Depending on the firmware versions present and on the device available
for programming (e.sybox or e.sylink) different procedures may be used.
During the firmware update the e.sybox and the e.sylink involved cannot
carry out pumping functions.
During the update the Slave e.sybox shows the message "LV LOADER
v2.x" and a bar indicating the progress of the update.
The update takes about 1 minute. At the end of this phase the e.sybox
will restart.
Once the e.sybox has restarted it is advisable to check that the expected
firmware has been installed. To do this, check the firmware version field
"SW V." on "page VE" of the "User Menu".
If any problems have occurred and the firmware has not been correctly
installed, follow the indications for solving the problems of the various
procedures described.
11.2.1 - Updating between one e.sybox and another
Updating between e.sybox units is possible only if one of them has a
firmware version of 4.00 or more.
Updating can be carried out in 3 ways:
• Manual: always possible if the Master has a firmware version of 4.00
or more. It is not necessary to associate the e.sybox.
• Automatic: possible only if both the e.sybox to be updated have
a firmware version of 4.00 or more. It is necessary to associate the
e.sybox
112
• Semiautomatic: always possible if the Master has a firmware version
of 4.00 or more and the Slave has a firmware version of less than 4.00.
It is necessary to associate the e.sybox.
11.2.1.1 - Manual updating
Requirements
• It is carried out between 2 e.sybox units at a time
• The e.sybox used as the Master must have a firmware version of 4.00
or more
• The e.sybox used as a Slave can have any firmware version
• The firmware version of the Master must be greater or the same as the
version of the Slave
• Association between devices is not necessary
• If several e.sybox units have to be updated the procedure must be
repeated each time
Procedure
1. Switch off the electric power supply to the e.sybox to be updated and
wait for the display to switch off
2. Go to page FW on the TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE menu of the
e.sybox you want to use as the Master and press the key [+].
3. On the e.sybox to be updated, supply power by holding down simul-
taneously the [MODE] and [-] keys until the update screen appears.
4. Wait for the update to be successfully completed and for both ma-
chines to restart.
Problem solving
If the update has not been successful, repeat the procedure.
11.2.1.2 - Automatic updating
Requirements
• It is carried out between 2 e.sybox units at a time
• The e.sybox used as the Master must have a firmware version of 4.00
or more
• The e.sybox used as the Slave must have a firmware version of 4.00
or more
• The firmware version of the Master must be greater or the same as the
