Redback® A 6500 Programming Guide
1.2 FIRST TIME USE RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that for first time use, the system is setup on a desk for easy access to all connections. Trying to remove
the Micro SD card while the Redback® A 6500 Wall Plate is installed is quite cumbersome. Also learning IR codes through
the wall plate IR sensor (see section 15.1) is easier on the desk.
1.3 FIRMWARE UPDATE
It is possible to update the firmware for this unit by downloading updated versions from www.altronics.com.au or
redbackaudio.com.au.
To perform an update, follow these steps.
1) Download the Zip file from the website.
2) Remove the SD card from the A 6500 and insert it into your PC. (Follow the steps on page 3 to open the SD card).
3) Extract the contents of the Zip file to the root folder of the SD Card.
4) Rename the extracted .BIN file to update.BIN.
5) Remove the SD card from the PC following windows safe card removal procedures.
6) With the power turned OFF, insert the SD card back into the A 6500.
7) Turn the A 6500 ON. The unit will check the SD card and if an update is required the A 6500 will perform the update
automatically.
1.4 RUNNING THE SOFTWARE
It is recommended to run the programming software from the SD card.
Double click on the file - RedbackA6500Software.
The programming screen should appear as shown in Fig 1.3.
