quickly and easily from a CD supplied by dCS.
Please follow the latest update instructions supplied with the CD. The
following is for guidance only.
You will need a standard CD Transport, a CD player or a dCS Verdi to play the
CD. A few CD players are not suitable because they upsample to 48kS/s or
change some of the data bits in other ways (one example is the ML37). Don't
worry - the CD Update routine detects these and stops, preventing any changes
to the internal software.
If you are updating a dCS Upsampler or DAC:
Connect an AES or RCA digital output from the Transport to the Upsampler or
DAC and select the input you have just connected. Disconnect any
interface cables.
If you are updating a dCS DAC connected to the Transport through another
device:

When the unit displays Cable, connect a BNC cable from the
BNC SPDIF digital output on the transport. The unit will lock to the transport,

itself, missing out some of the early steps. Disconnect any
cables.
For all dCS units:
RELAX! The update procedure is easy.
Mute your power amplifier.
Insert a dCS CD (containing software for the unit you want to update) into the
transport, making sure it is in STOP mode.
Open the Menu on the unit to be updated and step through until the display
shows CDUpdate.
Press the button to start the routine.
Select

After 3-4 minutes, the unit will scroll
