Operating Software Version Number
You can check the current version number of the
ML3000 software running on the console using a
PC connected via RS232. Instructions for this are
provided on the Allen & Heath Internet site.
Loading New Operating Software
Check the Allen & Heath Web site for the latest
version of console software. New software is
loaded from a PC via the RS232 port.
IMPORTANT ! The current console settings and
snapshots may be lost when you load new
operating software. If you wish to keep your
settings and snapshot contents, first archive them
using the dump out facility. Restore these after
loading the new software by using dump in.
Download the software from the Allen & Heath Web
site to your PC computer. Connect the PC RS232
port to the console RS232 port using a standard
pin-to-pin (not null modem) 9-pin serial cable. Set
the console rear panel switch to the RS232 position.
Power up the console. The console awaits data
from the PC. Follow the instructions provided on
the Web site for loading the new software into the
console. When completed make sure you set the
console rear panel switch back to its normal
operating position, typically MIDI.
