12.7.2 Firmware upgrades using the Dolby
Lake Controller PLM Edition
The PLM firmware may also be upgraded from
the DLC PLM Edition software application. It is
recommended that this method is used only for
upgrading small numbers of PLMs. The Firmware
Update Utility provides a faster upgrade process for
large networks.
To upgrade using the DLC PLM Edition software:
1. Install the latest version of the DLC PLM Edition
software. Power on all PLMs and connect to
the PC using a wired network.
2. Launch the Controller in the normal way.
3. Tap Modules and drag an old module from
the Modules scrolling bar into the work area.
The module will flash indicating that the PLM
it relates to has old firmware and a warning
message will appear.
4. Read the warning message and tap
5. Place all old firmware modules in the work area,
then tap Home.
