UPDATING FIRMWARE

Occasionally it may be necessary to update the devices firmware (with file extension .dfw); this may be due to added features

or amendments to the VNET™ product. Check with your dealer/distributor or (www.tannoy.com) for any applicable updates.

Firmware can be updated over the network (no need to disconnect speakers from the network)

A firmware update will be common to all VNET™ products (one file for all models).

Updating a devices firmware is straight forward:-

1. Download and save the new firmware file to disk.

2. From the toolbar select ‘Device’ & ‘Start Firmware Loader’

3. The following message will appear

4. Click ‘OK’

5. Browse to the new firmware file & select. The following message will appear stating the old version number &

the replacement version number.

6. Click ‘OK’

7. In order for the new firmware to take effect the unit has to be switched off & back on again. This can be done

automatically after the update. Click ‘OK’ to confirm.

8. At the bottom right hand side of the screen a blue bar will show the progress of the firmware update.

9. After the download is complete the following message appears. The DSP is updating at this point. Do not power

down the unit or disconnect any network cable at this point. During the update a red bar will show the progress

of the firmware update (bottom right of screen).

10. The device will then power cycle automatically. The device is now ready for normal operation.
