Lake Controller Operation Manual Rev 1.6.1

Firmware Update

PLM+ and D Series devices with a ﬁrmware

version later than v2.59 will automatically power

cycle; this is clearly indicated in the update tool.

Devices that require a manual power cycle are

clearly highlighted in the update tool.

Figure 27-6: Firmware Update Conrmation

9. Cycle the power of each Lake device as indicated in the update tool.

Mains power must be cycled to complete the

ﬁrmware update. Pressing the front panel standby

button will not complete the upgrade.

10. Tap OK, then tap EXIT to quit the rmware update utility.

For Lake-enabled ampliers, if the rmware includes a change for amplier, front panel or Dante compo-

nents, additional upgrade activity and progress will be indicated on the front panel. After an upgrade of the

amplier rmware, the unit will reboot automatically.

Firmware upgrades for PLM+ and D Series devices

will take longer to update when the release includes

new Dante ﬁrmware. Do not interrupt a ﬁrmware

upgrade procedure.

27.3 Incompatible Firmware Notiﬁcation in Lake Controller

If a device with incompatible rmware (older of newer than this version of the Lake Controller can support)

is placed in the Lake Controller work area, an indication similar to that shown in Figure 27-7 will be displayed

on the associated Module icons.
