7 Upgrading the MVX-A16 card
This chapter describes how to upgrade the MVX-A16 analog port card, which is fitted to the Eclipse
HX-Median, Eclipse HX-Omega and Eclipse HX-Delta matrices.
Note:
This guide is laid out in the order in which you must upgrade your Eclipse HX software and hardware
devices. For a quick reference to upgrading your system, see
3 Quick reference: Upgrading to Eclipse HX.
7.1 Upgrading the MVX-A16 boot and/or application code
If you are upgrading from ECS v5.2.4, Clear-Com recommends upgrading the MVX-A16 card with the
combined MVX boot and application code file (*.mot), using the Renesas Flash Development Tool
(FDT).
If you are upgrading an existing Eclipse HX installation, you can upgrade:
• The MVX application code separately (*.fwc), using EHX.
• The MVX boot code separately (*.mot), using the Renesas FDT method.
• The MVX boot and application code simultaneously, using the Renesas FDT method and the
combined MVX boot and application code file (*.mot).

7.1.1 Upgrading the MVX-A16 card application code using EHX
You can upgrade the MVX-A16 application code (*.fwc) using EHX and an Eclipse HX matrix. For
Ethernet connections, an EHX configuration is required with the correct IP address configured. The
application code is available from the Eclipse HX v7.5 software DVD.
Place the H8 application code in a location that EHX can access. When these files are downloaded to
the matrix, all the MVX-A16 cards that have been fitted to the matrix will be upgraded.
