CTR 8 • Updating Firmware

13

NOTES:

The original factory-installed firmware is permanently available on the CTR 8.
If the attempted firmware upload fails for any reason, the unit reverts to the
factory version.

By default, when the firmware is downloaded from the Extron site, it is saved in
one of the following paths:

C:\Program Files\Extron\Firmware\folder_name

(Windows XP) or

C:\Program Files (x86)\Extron\Firmware\folder_name

(Windows 7)

where

folder_name

may be

CTR 8

or something similar.

In the Add Device dialog, the path to the new firmware file is displayed in the Path field.

Figure 11.

10.

If this is the only device to which you are uploading firmware, click Add. The CTR 8

information is added to the Devices section of the Firmware Loader dialog box and the
Add Device dialog closes.
If you want to upload the firmware to multiple units that are connected to your

computer, do the following:

a.

Click Add Next. Your first device is added to the Devices section of the Firmware
Loader dialog box, and the Add Device dialog remains open.

b.

For each additional device you want to add, repeat steps 4 through 9, then click
Add Next.

c.

For the last device, click Add (instead of Add Next) to add the device and to close the
Add Device dialog.
