Firmware Updates
As of the date of this writing, the firmware update pro-
gram runs only on a Windows operating system.
Updating the firmware is simply a matter of download-
ing a utility program and file from the web site and
running the program with the receiver connected to a
computer via the USB port.
Go to www.lectrosonics.com/US. Click on SUPPORT
in the top bar, then click on the link to the HHa trans-
mitter in the CATEGORIES pane on the right side of
the page. Click on the link labeled Firmware Updates
at the bottom of the page. Download the Firmware
Updater program zip file and extract it to a temporary
folder on your computer. Then download and extract
the firmware zip file (e.g. xxxx_16.zip) and extract it to
a temporary folder on your computer.
Remove the lower housing of the transmitter by un-
screwing it from the housing attached to the capsule
and pulling it straight off the body of the transmitter to
expose the circuitry. Spring-loaded ball detents provide
a “stop” with only the control panel exposed. Continue
to pull the lower housing farther to remove it. Simply
push the lower housing back onto the transmitter body
to re-install it.
The USB port on the transmitter requires a micro-B
male plug on the connecting cable. The other end of
the cable would normally be a USB A-Type male con-
nector to fit the most common type of USB jack used
on computers.

Connect the USB cable and run the utility program.
The program will automatically detect the transmitter
and prompt for the location of the firmware file. Point
at the file and click on Start. The process takes about
90 seconds. A message on the computer screen will
confirm the update is complete. Turn the transmitter
off and disconnect the USB cable. Turn the transmitter
back on again in the normal mode to verify it is work-
ing correctly.
