Firmware Upgrade
The DIR911t is very robust in its ability to update its internal firmware. There are two
was to accomplish an update: USB, and Internet. The USB option requires you to first
go to the Eventide update web site (update.eventide.com) and download the latest
dir911t.sys file. The latest file on the server is: downloads/dir911t.sys-latest. Copy this
file to the USB Hard Drive Key (it must be in the root or top level directory of the key)
and rename it dir911t.sys.
If your DIR911t is connected to the Internet and has outbound TCP port 80 (WWW)
open (check with your system administrator) you can use the Internet directly to update
your DIR911t. In this case, the DIR911t will go out to the Eventide web site
(www.eventide.com) and retrieve the dir911t.sys file itself.
To begin an update, enter the setup mode and select the Firmware Upgrade option. You
will be presented with the screen shown in Figure #48.
