Firmware Update
Firmware updates are initiated via the Blackstar INSIDER software. A new version
of the Blackstar INSIDER software will be released whenever an update is available.
When the amplifier is connected (via USB) to a version of the Blackstar INSIDER
software containing newer firmware, a message will be displayed prompting you to
install the latest files. Whilst updating, the amplifier controls will be unresponsive.
Front panel voice LEDs will cycle to indicate data activity during the update process.
The amplifier power should not be switched off during a firmware update. If the
amplifier is switched off during an update, the controls may be unresponsive after
the power is reapplied and the amplifier will produce no sound. The voice LEDs
will cycle to indicate that the amplifier contains no valid firmware and is awaiting a
firmware update.
If you are experiencing problems with the firmware update process the amplifier can
be forced to power up in Update Mode. Hold down the Manual (13) and MOD (6)
switches simultaneously, whilst switching on the amplifer to enter this mode with the
voice LEDs cycling to indicate Update Mode. Connect the amplifier to the Blackstar
INSIDER software to begin a firmware update.
The amplifier must be connected to the Blackstar INSIDER software to reinstall
valid firmware. The update process will start automatically if the Blackstar INSIDER
software detects that the amplifier is in this state.
