User Guide, Rev: C/e, March 2023 19 / 33
BOOTLOADER
The MDG ATMe uses a BootLoader, also called boot manager. This program is a firmware (software
embedded in a hardware device) located into the non-volatile memory of the microcontroller unit (MCU)
that allows in-circuit reprogramming of the device using its USB communication port.
To upgrade the firmware, you will need:
• a computer running under Windows, with a USB 2.0 connector
• special driver for the USB, included in the package,
• a standard USB 2.0 cable, A to B Male/Male type
Contact the MDG Service to have the last package firmware upgrade for the MDG ATMe.
RDM CONTROL
The MDG ATMe can be controlled via a RDM ANSI E1.20 protocol, an intelligent bi-directional
communication utilizing the DMX512 data link.
RDM allows a console or other controlling device to discover and then configure, monitor, and manage
intermediate and end-devices connected through a DMX512 network. RDM provides for intelligent control
of devices on a DMX512 network, which has not been previously available outside of proprietary networks
RDM Control has the same functionalities than the DMX Control (see DMX Control) with bi-directional
functions allowing the user to read or write specific functions.
