6 Upgrading the Eclipse HX-PiCo
This chapter describes how to upgrade the Eclipse HX-PiCo matrix, including the PROM,
FPGA and application code.
The Eclipse HX-PiCo PROM is different from the PROM used with the CPU cards, which
are fitted to the Eclipse HX-Median, Eclipse HX-Omega and Eclipse HX-Delta matrices.
Care should be taken to ensure that the correct PROM is fitted.
Note: If you are upgrading your PiCo to an HX-PiCo please contact your Clear-Com
representative to establish if your hardware is HX ready. If your PiCo hardware is not HX
ready then this is a factory only upgrade.
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
3Quick reference: Upgrading to Eclipse HX.
Note: The HX-PiCo mainboard needs a factory hardware modification.
Eclipse HX devices are powered by mains voltage. Unless
specifically advised to the contrary, disconnect mains supply before
carrying out any maintenance or repair tasks. Observe precautions
for handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
6.1 Changing the Eclipse HX-PiCo PROM
Note: When you change the Eclipse HX-PiCo PROM, you must also change the Eclipse HX-PiCo
RAM (from 128Mb RAM to 256Mb RAM). See 6.2 Changing the Eclipse HX-PiCo RAM
below.
To upgrade the Eclipse HX-PiCo PROM:
1) Ensure that you have the following equipment:
2MBit PROM device (ST
M27W201 or equivalent).
You will also require the appropriate
programming software for the unit.
The appropriate S record
file for the Eclipse HX-PiCo
boot PROM.
You can find the S record file on the Drivers
USB:
Drivers USB > ECLIPSE DRIVERS > PiCo-
HX_PiCo_E-32 > xxxxxx – Boot PROM
(where xxxxxx represents the part number).

2) Ensure that the Eclipse HX-PiCo is powered off. Remove the lid of the device.
