[QUOTE="Scott Helmke, post: 73524, member: 96"] Re: Yamaha CL firmware update - v1.15 now out There are separate downloads for each CL (1, 3, 5) and for each Rio (3224, 1608). So grab each appropriate download, extract all, etc. Bear in mind that each product has TWO updates - one for the Yamaha hardware, and one for the little red Dante card tucked inside. All of this is reasonably well documented in the PDF included with each download, including step-by-step instructions. Trust those instructions rather than mine if there is any doubt. In each case you will do the Yamaha update before doing the Dante update. For the CL: 1. Grab the appropriate files out of the download and put them on the root directory of a USB memory, and have it inserted while powering up the console. This is exactly the same as for an LS9 or M7CL. Reboot when instructed, etc. 2. From the download you install the Dante Firmware Update Manager application on a computer (Mac or Win). Then you need to set the computer to a compatible address in the 169.254.x.x subnet (if it can't make up its own). Disable wifi, etc. to avoid confusing things. Connect computer Ethernet port directly to the Dante primary port on the console, and run the Firmware Update Manager. You'll have to browse into the downloaded files to find the Dante update file for the console, then go through the screens to identify and update the console. This is pretty simple, though might take a couple tries with the network settings to get it to work. For the Rio: 1. Extract the files, yada yada. You'll have to set your computer IP address to 192.168.0.101 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Won't work otherwise. Connect directly between computer and Dante primary port, and set the Rio DIP switches on the front panel as described in the instructions. Power up the Rio, then run the update.exe program from the same directory as the instruction PDF - the rest is fairly obvious: click on "connection", and if it gives you a version number instead of an error you can click on "update" to update the Rio. Quit the program when done. 2. Same set of steps as for the console Dante update, including setting IP address differently. Note that while you have to do the steps in the above order, you can also work in batches - do the Yamaha update on each of your Rio racks, then change IP address on your computer and do all the Dante update on each Rio.
