Downloading A Configuration File

As with uploading a configuration file, downloading a configuration file from a SoundStructure device to

SoundStructure Studio involves selecting the Connect to Devices menu option, selecting the interface to

connect to (Ethernet or serial), selecting the device from the list of devices found and finally selecting "Get

configuration from devices" and then clicking the Connect button. The settings from the device is retrieved

and displayed within SoundStructure Studio.

After connecting to a SoundStructure device, the SoundStructure firmware may be updated using

SoundStructure Studio. As the firmware files are nearly ten megabytes in size, it is recommended that

SoundStructure Studio connect to the SoundStructure device over its Ethernet interface to minimize the

firmware file transfer time.

If updating firmware over RS-232, it is recommended that the 115,200 baud rate be selected on the

SoundStructure device. At 115,200 baud, a typical firmware file transfer requires approximately ten to fifteen

minutes. When the Ethernet interface is used, the file transfer time is reduced to less than two minutes.

After connecting to a device as described in the previous sections, click on the System name -

SoundStructure System in this example - to navigate to the firmware update page shown in the following
