7 - Firmware Updates
The controller is capable of having its firmware updated (new software). An update is
typically performed to fix problems or to add new features.
To perform a firmware update, ensure that you have your PixLite 16 Mk2 controller
connected to the LAN network as per Section 5.1.
The latest firmware is available from the Advatek website at the following link:
www.advateklights.com/downloads
The downloaded file will be archived in a ".zip" format, which should be extracted. The
".hex" file is the file that the controller needs.
7.1 - Performing a Standard Update
1. Open the Advatek Assistant. Click “Search” and once the desired controller
appears in the main window, double click on it.
2. A configuration window will appear. Click on the “Misc” tab and then locate
the “Update Firmware” button and click on it. A “firmware update” window
will appear, as shown in Figure 12 below. Click “browse” to locate the
firmware file you wish to use.
3. Click on the “update” button.
4. Once the update is complete, a message box will pop up saying it has
completed successfully.
5. The controller will automatically reboot itself and then start running the new
firmware application immediately.
If there is something wrong with the updated firmware, repeat the process again if it
is still visible in the configuration utility. Otherwise, refer to troubleshooting in Section 9
for further information.
