6.3 Firmware Update

The Flash Update Tool updates the firmware of the Digiface AVB to the latest version. It

requires an already installed driver.

Download the latest version from the RME website at http://rme.to/usbe

. Unzip the

downloaded file and start the program fut_usbplus_avb_dante.exe under Windows, or USB

Series Flash Tool under Mac. The Flash Update Tool displays the current revision of the

Digiface AVB's firmware, and whether it needs an update or not. If so, then simply press the

'Update' button. A progress bar will indicate when the flash process is finished (Verify Ok).

After the update the Digiface AVB needs to be reset. This is done by powering down the

Digiface AVB for 5 seconds. A reboot of the computer is not necessary.

When the update unexpectedly fails (status: failure), the unit's Safety BIOS will be used from

the next boot on, the unit stays fully functional. The flash process should then be tried again.
