MTX Editor V1.3.0 for Win8.1/8/7 and firmware V1.30 (Previous version)

  • To update the firmware, please refer to the MTX/XMV/EXi8/EXo8 Firmware Update Guide.
  • The preset data of the device will be lost if the firmware is updated from V1.0x, V1.1x, V1.2x to V1.3x or later. Please ensure that the MTX is synchronized and saved to the compatible MTX Editor as a project file before performing the firmware update in order to ensure that your project data is not lost, and then perform the firmware upgrade using the latest version of MTX Editor. Please ensure that the device is initialized after the update, then open the previously saved project file using the latest MTX Editor and re-synchronize to the updated devices.
  • When initializing Dante devices (MTX5-D and Dante model of XMV), please ensure that all other Dante devices on the network are disconnected or powered off. Otherwise initialization could take longer than necessary.
  • To prevent damage to the SD memory card as well as loss of data, do not remove or insert the SD memory card while the device is on.
  • Although MTX Editor shows 'Completed' after updating firmware, please do not turn off the power of the device until the indicators on the front panel have stopped blinking.
  • In the unlikely case of hardware failure, please initialize the replacement device(s) and confirm proper ID and DIP switch settings, then resynchronize from MTX Editor to the device(s).
  • When entering text into a text field inside a dialog box of MTX Editor using Input Method Editors, such as Microsoft IME, please ensure that the mouse pointer is not clicked over another area of the open dialog window before converting and applying the text. This will cause the keyboard input to stop. Should this happens, please close and re-open the dialog box.
  • Please do not set up the following characters with in text fields in MTX Editor. 
    [ &, <, >, “, ‘, /, $’, Newline(\n), Tab(\t), e.t.c. ] 
    These characters may disappear or change into an unexpected character.
  • When the project file created by MTX Editor V1.0x is opened with MTX Editor V1.1x or later, [Play] selected by "SD Song Select & Play" in the “Preset” dialog, is changed to [No Assign]. In this case, please manually change [No Assign] for all necessary Presets to [Play].
  • Please do not use the EEE function (*) of network switches in a Dante network. Although power management should be negotiated automatically in switches that support EEE, some switches do not perform the negotiation properly. This may cause EEE to be enabled in Dante networks when it is not appropriate, resulting in poor synchronization performance and occasional dropouts. Therefore we strongly recommend that:
    1. If you use managed switches, ensure that they allow EEE to be disabled. Make sure that EEE is disabled on all ports used for real-time Dante traffic.
    2. If you use unmanaged switches, make sure to not use network switches that support the EEE function, since EEE operation cannot be disabled in these switches.
    *EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that reduces switch power consumption during periods of low network traffic. It is also known as Green Ethernet and IEEE802.3az.

MTX-MRX Editor / Firmware / Wireless DCP / ProVisionaire Touch / Tio1608-D / R Series (Rio/Ri/Ro) Compatibilities (Win)

Please make sure to use the appropriate versions of firmware and software, referring to the following compatibility charts. Using an unsupported combination may result in malfunction.

Compatibility List

MTX System V1.3

New Functions

  • Mono Input Channels can now be paired for Stereo operation, via the MTX Configuration window.
  • All MTX devices can now synchronize with an Internet time server.
  • It is now possible to control input levels and send levels via inc/dec level controls assignable to DCP switches.
  • Input Source Selection can now be set via DCP switches. This will assign the chosen Source Level to either the DCP knob or switches as set in MTX Editor.
  • Up to 8 simultaneous external remote control connections (including Wireless DCP) are now possible via the NETWORK connector or Dante connector. A further connection is possible via the RS-232C connector.

Firmware V1.30

New Function

  • A Setr Command has been added to the Remote Control Protocol to allow input level and send level to be controlled via inc/dec level commands. For further details, please refer to a "MTX3, MTX5-D, XMV Series, EXi8, EXo8 Remote Control Protocol Specifications."

Fixed Bugs

  • Fixed a rare problem which caused a parameter value to sometimes differ between devices in a MTX System.
  • Fixed a problem when a remote controller was disconnected from the MTX system, existing settings data was not fully deleted from the MTX system, which caused a fault when another remote controller connected to the system.

MTX Editor V1.3.0

New Function

  • In a Project Window, double clicking on any device picture (other than for a DCP) will display an explanation of the rear panel DIP switch setting options for that device. If the physical device is also present on the network or online with MTX Editor, the current status of the DIP Switch Settings for that device will also be displayed. Please refer to MTX Editor User's Manual for further details.

Improvements

  • It is no longer necessary to manually specify the ‘Firmware’ folder location to update device firmware from MTX Editor. This is now done automatically following installation of MTX Editor V1.3.
  • It is now possible to view the status of the [YDIF], [SCHEDULAR] and [SD/ACT] indicators of a MTX device from the Device tab of an online device.
  • The "YDIF" tab of the "EXT. I/O" screen has been improved so it is easier to understand the signal flow of the YDIF chain.

Fixed Bugs

  • Fixed a problem with MTX5-D when Channel Copy and Paste functions did not correctly paste the Channel On state and Fader value from channel 9 and above.
  • Fixed a problem when an Output channel was set to 2way operation, ‘Copy and Paste’ operation to another 2way Output channel did not paste the speaker processor High Band PEQ ON state and Output Level value correctly.
  • Fixed a problem in the “Device Configuration Wizard" dialog when an existing MTX device was deleted from the system and the same ID was then applied to a new device, it was not possible to close the wizard.
  • Fixed a problem which caused the SRC value of a MY4-AEC/MY8-AE96S card assigned to a MTX5-D to be reset to its default value, following an edit to the “Device Configuration Wizard.”

MTX3 Firmware V1.30 / MTX5-D Firmware V1.30

Fixed Bugs

  • Fixed a problem when a preset recall did not always recall the Router settings correctly.
  • Fixed a problem when the Alert Log did not list a Pause command (No. 210) for SD card playback when triggered from a Scheduler Event.
  • Fixed a problem when four or more Events in the Scheduler were programmed to occur at the same time, some of the Events may not have been performed correctly.
  • Fixed a problem when a remote controller or MTX Editor sent any DST related command to the MTX system, the MTX system did not always reply to the remote controller with a NOTIFY command.

XMV Firmware V1.30

Fixed Bugs

  • Fixed a problem which caused an output level fade-in, following a 1000 or more second’s wait for an audio input signal to be applied to the amplifier.
  • Fixed a problem which incorrectly set the value of HPF to 40 Hz instead of 80 Hz, if initialization was performed with any pair of output channels set to High Impedance mode.
