Updating Firmware
VP-792 accepts firmware downloads only in a dedicated Updater mode.
First disconnect the USB lead.
The unit is put in Updater mode by pressing and keeping the Menu key pressed at power up. If the
Menu key is released within 10 seconds after power up VP-792 is in Updater mode. Otherwise, VP-792
is started normally.
Whilst the Menu key is still pressed the On LED is flashing. When in Updater mode the On LED is
flashing two times repeatedly
Now the USB connection between PC and VP-792 needs to be established and the Kramer PC Updater
tool to be started.
The PC Updater tool allows to browse and select a firmware file in BREC format. When a BREC has
been selected the Update Firmware button has to be pressed and the firmware download to the VP-792
into non volatile flash RAM starts.
After completion of the download VP-792 needs to be restarted normally (without pressing the Menu
key) for the change to take effect.
It is recommended that a factory reset is now performed.
