Modular I/O Configuration Guide60
To connect from different PCs to the same device, use one UDP port per device because different PCs open a different IP socket con-
nection for the same device.
To connect from one PC to different devices, a unique UDP port number must be set for every remote device so assign a range of
UDP ports for the Frame Controller.
Updating the FC972 Remote Firmware
The FC972’s firmware must be burned into its flash memory. Firmware is downloaded as a compressed ZIP file containing the
firmware image and may also contain dedicated module firmware packed into an archive file and relevant documents. After
downloading, decompress the files and save them to a known directory on the configuration PC. Contact Avid professional sup-
port for information on available firmware.
To update the FC972’s firmware:
1 Open the frame’s web browser interface and click the wrench tool inside the FC972 graphical symbol.
2 Select the SOFTWARE UPDATE tab.
3 Click the SEARCH button and navigate to the appropriate image file. This may be on the PC or elsewhere on the network.
UDP Port Range Metering settings
Connecting multiple Java applets from the same PC to the same device is not implemented! In this case, the next browser session
gets UDP data from that device but the previous applet is terminated.
