FIRMWARE UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS These instructions are applicable to Series 1500 Intercom systems with v4.0 or higher firmware. If your system is not SD card-compatible, or has v3.9 or earlier firmware, call Audio Authority technical support. Download the latest firmware version from http://www.audioauthority.com/page/series1500firmware and follow the instructions to copy the necessary files onto an SD card. Note: Series 1500 equipment with firmware prior to version 1.5 may not be upgraded to version 4.07 using older hubs. To upgrade to version 4.07, these systems must have a new 1509SD hub, or a new 1517SD hub card. This upgrade may take several minutes. The system cannot be used during this time, so plan for adequate down-time to complete and verify the upgrade. • Insert the SD memory card into the 1509SD or 1517SD card slot. • Connect a 1550 Installer Setup Tool to the underside of a Model 1500 Counter Station that has firmware v4.0 or higher. • Press Setup for 2 seconds • Press Key 5 (1st button on second row) • Press Key 4 (last button on top row) • Press the Mirror key • Press the Setup key twice After a successful upgrade, “Firmware upgrade complete” is displayed on the 1550 screen. The menu on the 1550 now shows several new selection options that apply only to the new 1500A, 1500AH, and 1533. Once the upgrade is complete, all indicators on the hub will return to normal operation. * 1-on-1 systems may be upgraded by temporarily connecting a hub. 2048 Mercer Road, Lexington, Kentucky 40511-1071 Phone: 859/233-4599 •...
