Firmware Updates
From time to time the CD-3000’s internal “firmware” may need updating to add new
features or improve existing functions. Firmware is easily updated by loading a
“Firmware Update CD” into the system. The latest version of firmware will be available
for downloading to your computer from the MediaFORM web site: www.mediaform.com
Once a firmware image file is downloaded, a “Firmware Update CD” can then be written
using a computer, a CD-R/RW recorder, and most popular premastering programs (such
as: Adaptec Easy CD Creator and Toast, CeQuadrat WinOnCD, Ahead Nero, NTI CD-
Maker, and others). Refer to your premastering software documentation for details on
how to record a disc from an image file.
After having created a “Firmware Update CD”, perform the following steps to update the
CD-3000’s firmware:
• From the main operating screen depicted below:
