7.2.1 Upgrading the MVX-A16 card app 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 v9.1 software
USB.
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.
To upgrade MVX-A16 H8 application code using EHX:
1. Ensure that you have the following equipment:
PC with an Ethernet
connector
Serial cable or Ethernet
cable for the PC to matrix
connection.
EHX must be configured and operational.
An EHX configuration file
(*.hxn)
The configuration file must have an
appropriate IP address set.
The appropriate *.fwc
format file for the MVX-A16
card
You can find the *.fwc file on the software
USB:
Drivers USB > ECLIPSE DRIVERS >
Omega-Median-Delta > xxxxxx-MVX
Application (where xxxxxx represents the
product number).
