2. Start the Matrix Switcher Control Program and connect to the DXP switcher (see steps
1 through 4 under Downloading and Installing the Software
procedure).
NOTE: The Ethernet connection is much faster than an RS-232 or RS-422
connection. Extron recommends using the Ethernet connection rather than the
serial port for firmware uploads.
3. From the Tools menu, select Update Firmware.... The Select Files to
Upload to Extron Server... window opens.
4. Navigate to the folder where you saved the firmware file and select the file.
Figure 83. Select Files to Upload Window with Firmware File Selected
NOTES:
• Valid firmware files must have the file extension .S19. Any other file extension is
not a firmware upgrade.
•
The original factory-installed firmware is permanently available on the DXP
switcher. If the attempted firmware upload fails for any reason, the switcher
reverts to the factory-installed firmware.
5. Click Open. A confirmation prompt window opens, reminding you that loading the
selected .s19 file reprograms the device firmware.
6. Click OK to continue with the upload. A status window appears, showing the progress
of the upload. The firmware upload to the DXP switcher may take a few minutes.
7. When the upload is complete, another prompt window appears, informing you that the
new firmware upgrade will cause the DXP to reset, which terminates the connection
with your computer and close the control software. Click OK.
If you want to continue using the Matrix Switcher Control Program, you must restart it.
