DSP5D Upgrade Guide

This document explains how to update the DSP5D firmware to the latest version.

Precautions (Please be sure to read this section first!)

・ The user assumes full responsibility for the update.

・ Back up all important data before updating.

・ If the DSP5D is cascade-connected to the PM5D, you may also need to update the PM5D when

updating the DSP5D. First check the PM5D firmware version as to whether it supports the DSP5D or

not, then update the PM5D. If the DSP5D is cascade-connected to an unsupported firmware version

of the PM5D, an error message “PM5D Unsupported Firmware Version” will be shown.

・ If you fail to follow these instructions properly, or turn off the DSP5D or unplug the cable while the

update is in progress, the DSP5D may be damaged.

・ If the DSP5D does not work properly after updating, and you’ve tried updating several times, please

contact your Yamaha dealer.

System Requirements

The system requirements below are necessary for updating the firmware.

・ An Ethernet port equipped computer with the DME-N Network Driver installed

(For details on the system requirements refer to the DSP5D Editor Installation Guide.)

・ One Ethernet cable

(If a single DSP5D is connected directly to the computer, you can use either a cross cable or straight

cable.)

Preparing for the update 1. Connect the computer to the DSP5D with an Ethernet cable. Yamaha recommends that you connect the computer directly to a single DSP5D via the NETWORK connector. If you have already used the DSP5D Editor, and the computer settings (including the DME-N Network Driver) and the DSP5D network settings have been made, go to step 3.

6. Specify the following settings, then click the [Load] button to start the Main CPU update. When the update is complete, a “Complete" message appears. Close the dialog box by clicking the [x] (close) button at the top right of the window. • Input Port/Output Port: Make sure that the same input/output ports as step 3 are selected for the input/output ports for communication between the DSP5D and the computer. • File Name: Confirm that the “mp5d*_**.

8. Click the [Done] button to finish the DSP5D Loader. When the update is complete, make sure to initialize the memory by following the procedure in the “Initializing the Internal Memory” section below. Initializing the Internal Memory After the firmware is updated, make sure to initialize the internal memory before using the DSP5D. 1.
