Appendix A – Upgrading the Firmware
Overview
The NetLinx Studio software application (available for free download from www.amx.com) provides the ability to
transfer KIT files to NetLinx devices such as DXLink Transmitters and Receivers. The firmware on the Transmitters and
Receiver can be upgraded in the field.
When a Transmitter and/or a Receiver are being used in conjunction with a switcher, the switcher’s integrated Master is
used for the KIT file transfer. FIG. 40 shows a Transmitter and a Receiver bound to the integrated Master in an Enova
DGX 32 in NetLinx Studio’s OnLine Tree. Follow the instructions on the top of page 104 to prepare for KIT file transfer
and the instructions on page 106 for the actual transfer.
