3Firmware update of MXC
The following equipment is needed:
•A PC with an LAN port
•A Ethernet LAN cable
•The MXC Firmware Update Utility (FUU)
•The Firmware Library
Check that all communication in the system is stable before performing updates.
IMPORTANT: NEVER REMOVE POWER FROM A SYSTEM PERFORMING AN UPDATE.
Errors in the update procedure may render the units unusable, so do not update a system just before a critical meeting if you have no
spare equipment.
If for some reason the update fails for one or more units but power has not been removed it is usually possible to do the update again
and units that did not correctly update the first time will continue where they stopped the second time around.
Shure.com has information about compatibility and updateability. If you are in doubt please consult Shure Conferencing Support by e-
mail: conferencingsupport@shure.dk
If a unit displays the message “Locked” in the LCD display, then the firmware version in the unit is not compatible with the firmware in
the Central Unit and the firmware in the unit has to be updated/downgraded.
The MXC Firmware Update Utility’ (FUU) is included in the firmware releases.
IMPORTANT: Always use the version of the FUU which is included in the firmware release.
