9. Firmware upgrade
The transmitter can be upgraded by using Lightware Device Updater (LDU) software via
USB. The application and the User's manual can be downloaded from www.lightware.eu.
In order to get the rmware pack with the necessary components (*.lfp le) for your specic
product, please contact support@lightware.eu.
ATTENTION!
While the rmware is being upgraded, the normal operation mode is suspended as the
transmitter is switched to bootload mode. Signal processing is not performed. Do not
interrupt the rmware upgrade. If any problem occurs, reboot the transmitter and restart
the process.

device. For more details, please see the section 9.5 on page 96 before the upgrade.
9.1. About the rmware package (LFP le)
The rmware les are handled in a different way and the new approach means new
features. If a device has to be upgraded, only one le is necessary (LFP le):
▪ The structure allows using the same LFP package for different devices (e.g. HDMI-
3D-OPT-TX200 series devices have only one common package).
▪ The package contains all the necessary components, binary, and other les; You do
not have to get further les.
▪ There is a descriptor le in the package that contains each rmware with version
number and a list showing the compatible devices. The descriptor is displayed after
loaded the LFP le in the LDU.
