Firmware - Software Update Packets (SUPs)
To keep the ALEXA up to date with new features, the camera firmware
can be updated by the user. Download the latest Software Update
Packet (SUP) from http://www.arri.com/camera/digital_cameras and be
sure to read the included instructions.
Please note that from version 8.0 on, Software Update Packets (SUPs)
for ALEXA Classic cameras with the SxS Module are different from
SUPs for ALEXA XT cameras and ALEXA Classic cameras that have
been upgraded with the XR Module. SUPs for ALEXA Classic cameras
with the SxS Module will be called "SUP X.Y (ALEXA Classic)". SUPs
for ALEXA XT cameras and ALEXA Classic cameras that have been
upgraded with the XR Module will be called "SUP X.Y (ALEXA XT/XR)".
Note: ARRI discourages downgrading cameras to lower SUP versions. Be sure
to carefully read the release notes of the currently installed SUP to find out if
downgrading is possible, and ask your ARRI service center if in doubt.
