Instruction Manual – Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 Digital Media Switchers
Sending Firmware (*.KIT) Files to the Enova DGX
Note: A KIT file (*.KIT) is a package of several files, all of which are required to upgrade the firmware and are
available online at www.amx.com
. Firmware download links are provided in the relevant product page.
NetLinx Devices such as the Enova DGX Switcher use KIT files for firmware upgrades.
The Enova DGX Switcher contains two components (devices) which each require a Kit file. These two components must
be kept at compatible firmware versions for proper operation.
NetLinx integrated Master Controller – Device ID 0 (zero)
Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 Switcher – Default Device ID 5002
Important: Any programs using the USB connection to the Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 must be halted prior to the
upgrade process being initiated to avoid breaking the USB link to the PC.
To send a KIT file to the Enova DGX:
1.
Complete any necessary items under the “Preparation Checklist” on the previous page.
2. In NetLinx Studio, choose Tools > Firmware Transfers > Send to NetLinx Device to open the Send to NetLinx
Device dialog (FIG. 98).
3. Click the Browse (...) button to navigate to the target directory (FIG. 99) in the Browse For Folder dialog. Select the
desired files (for the Master upgrade and the switcher upgrade); click OK.
Caution: If for any reason the KIT file transfer or the upgrade process fails, continue to retry until successful.
Do not
reboot or power cycle the Enova DGX Switcher or change the connections until the files are
transferred and the upgrade process is complete. Failure to complete both the transfer of files and the
upgrade successfully may require a factory repair of the Enova DGX Switcher.
