Mytek Digital Manhattan DAC (v.1.3) - Manual (Page 17)

Mytek Manhattan Digital to Analog Converter – User's Manual
5.7 Firmware update Windows and OS X
Currently the DAC firmware update requires Firewire connection (cannot be performed via
USB). As of Firmware v.1.6.1 a failsafe feature has been added to ensure proper operation
following a firmware load failure. If firmware update is interrupted (by power cut for
example), the unit will revert to its last firmware. Prior firmware versions are not failsafe
and must be loaded safely by shutting down all non essential programs, disconnecting
USB1 and USB2 ports and ensuring uninterrupted power to the unit. After Firmware has
been loaded the DAC and Computer have to be restorted.
Inside FireWire control panel, under Device Settings is the Firmware Loader.
Download the latest Firmware.bin file from http://www.mytekdigital.com. Browse to the new
firmware file and press upload. Once the unit wakes up after the firmware update, power
cycle the DAC. Once the DAC has been restarted the firmware update is complete with all
setting reverting to default.
