Chapter 22. PC software
22.1 Software installation
Run 'Install.exe' from the Xciter CD. This will install all necessary application files and drivers to your PC or
laptop.
22.2 Firmware manager
Use this application to update the firmware in your console. You can download new firmware from the
Martin support site.
1. Make sure Xciter is connected to the PC.
2. Make sure the Xciter is booted.
3. Power on the Xciter and wait until it has finished booting and shows the intro screens.
4. Start the FM (Firmware Manager) application.
5. Go to the page 'Burning firmware'.
IMPORTANT:
We recommend you upgrade Xciter firmware in a 'power safe' environment. If Xciter blacks out during
firmware update, the console may no longer work. If the console no longer works after an update, you need
to contact the nearest Martin dealer for advice or repair.
22.2.1 Update IO controller
1. Press 'Update IOC'.
2. You may reboot the console, only if the software reports a successful update with 'Verify OK. Upload
success'.
3. If the software reports an error, retry the procedure. If the error persists, you need to contact Martin support
for advice or repair.
The software warns you if you try to upload an older version or the same version of firmware. Press 'Yes' to
continue, 'No' to cancel.
We strongly recommend you, NOT to upload older firmware versions.
