Updating Firmware

Firmware is embedded software in each component that controls functional-
ity. Periodically, new versions of firmware are developed to incorporate addi-
tional features and enhancements. To take advantage of design improve-
ments, new versions of the firmware can be uploaded and installed using
the Shure Update Utility. The Shure Update Utility is available for download
from http://www.shure.com/.
Firmware Versioning
When performing an update, download firmware to the receiver first, and
then update transmitters to the same firmware version to ensure consistent
operation.

Transmitter Controls

Use the controls to navigate through parameter menus and change values.

JOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.14). At a minimum, all devices on the network
(including transmitters), must have the same MAJOR and MINOR firmware
version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).
