MPS Microphone Firmware Update

There are a number of programs which run on the MPS microphone.
These instructions describe how to update the main MPS firmware application which runs on its main board.
2.1

Firmware Update via Ethernet Port

You Will Need:
1) The new firmware binary file (e.g. ASL-DESK-MIC_V1_5_6.bin)
2) The Ethernet Updater (MB_ethernet_bootloader.exe) and script file (download_ethernet.cmd)
3) The Finder tool (finder.exe)
To Update The Main Board Application Using the Ethernet Updater:
1. Ensure the host PC has an IP address in the same subnet as the target microphone.
2. If the host PC has connections to more than one network, ensure the network interface used by the
Ethernet Updater has the highest priority.
To change the binding order, follow the instructions provided in "To Change the Binding Order of the
Network Interfaces on a Windows Machine:" (page 8).
3. Connect the host PC and microphone to the Ethernet network.
The PC may be directly connected to the Microphone Ethernet port.
4. In Windows Explorer, double-click "finder.exe" to run the Finder tool.
5. A list of microphones present in the network will be displayed.
Example: List of microphones displayed by the Finder tool
6. Ensure the new firmware binary file (e.g. ASL-DESK-MIC_V1_5_6.bin) is in the same folder as the
Ethernet Updater.
7. Open the "download_ethernet.cmd" script file with a text editor.
The "download-ethernet.cmd" script is supplied with the Ethernet Updater.
