MTX-MRX Editor V2.1.0 for Win10/8.1/8/7 and firmware V2.10-2 (Previous version)

  • To update the firmware, please refer to the MTX/MRX/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. Ensure that the MTX is synchronized and saved to 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. Ensure that the device is initialized after the update, and 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, MRX7-D and Dante model of XMV), 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-MRX Editor shows 'Completed' after updating firmware, 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, initialize the replacement device(s), confirm proper ID and DIP switch settings, and then resynchronize from MTX-MRX Editor to the device(s).
  • When entering text into a text field inside a dialog box of MTX-MRX Editor using Input Method Editors, such as Microsoft IME, 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 happen, close and re-open the dialog box.
  • Do not enter the following characters in text fields in the MTX-MRX Editor.
    & < > “ ‘ / $’ \n (line feed) \t (tab)
    These characters may disappear or change into unexpected characters.
  • When the project file created by MTX Editor V1.0x is opened with MTX-MRX Editor or 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, manually change [No Assign] for all necessary Presets to [Play].
  • 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.
  • When the MTX-MRX Editor changes Dante patch settings for large numbers of devices, it may take several minutes after synchronization is shown to be complete (in MTX-MRX Editor) for the patch to be established and audio to be heard.

In addition, Dante firmware "3.8.0.24-3.5.1.8-1.2.2" and "3.8.32.1-3.5.33.8-1.2.2" products can be used together. Please refer to the version compatibility table of each device.
Caution after updating

When using Dante Firmware of a version earlier than V3.8.0.24 - 3.5.1.8 - 1.2.2, and Dante Latency is set to less than 1 msec, if the Dante Firmware is updated, the sound may be distorted. Please carry out one of the following after updating Dante Firmware.

-Initialize the devices. 
- Perform [Clear Config] in the "Device Config" tab of the "Device View" window of Dante Controller. 
- Reset after changing [Latency] into another value once from the "Dante Information" dialog box of MTX-MRX Editor. 
- Reset after changing [Latency] into another value once from the "Device Config" tab of the "Device View" window of Dante Controller.
Note:

If "Unsupported" is displayed while updating the Dante firmware and the update can not be performed, please update once to the Dante Transition Firmware (MTX/MRX/XMV) listed in the Related Downloads and then update to the desired version of Dante firmware again.

Compatibility List

MTX-MRX Editor V2.1.0

New Functions

  • Added an Acoustic Echo Canceller component to MRX Designer.
  • Added a revolabs control component to MRX Designer.
  • Added input/output components to MRX Designer. Also, the specification has been changed so as to not automatically place input/output components in the design sheet.
  • Added a User Defined Block function to MRX Designer. This function allows the combining of two or more components that can then be treated as one component. Refer to [Help] menu -> [Operation Manual] or the MRX Designer user's guide.

Improvements

  • Added the [Select All Wires] in [Edit] menu to MRX Designer. So all wires on the design sheet can be selected.
  • Added the [Unbundle Wires] and [Bundle Wires] functions in the [Edit] menu to MRX Designer. [Unbundle Wires] displays individual wires that were previously overlapping. [Bundle Wires] overlaps wires following a similar path in order to save space and make a tidy design. Refer to [Help] menu -> [Operation Manual] or the MRX Designer user's guide.
  • Added the [Reset Style to Factory Default] function in the [File] menu to MRX Designer. This changes a User style into the state immediately after MTX-MRX Editor installation.
  • Setting of two or more objects can be changed now all at once in the "Properties" area of MRX Designer. Refer to [Help] menu -> [Operation Manual] or the MRX Designer user's guide.
  • + drag-and-drop operation can now be used to register “Router” parameters into Parameter Sets or the Remote Control List from the grid of the "Router" component editor of MRX Designer.
  • Port names are displayed/edited by a component editor with partial components, such as Matrix Mixer on MRX Designer.
  • Functions for list edit, such as [Insert] and [Swap], were added to the context menu displayed when right-clicking a list in the "Remote Control Setup List" dialog box of MRX Designer.
  • A [Search] button was added to the "Remote Control Setup List" dialog box of MRX Designer. You can search for items registered to the list.
  • The menu button was added to the "Digital Control Panel" dialog box, the "Wireless DCP" dialog box and the "GPI" dialog box. Copy/paste operations, etc. are now possible between the same devices in the same MTX/MRX system.
  • Capability for expanding/collapsing the display of all 16 channels on the "DANTE" screen has now been included on MTX-MRX Editor. Also, the order of the devices can be swapped by drag and drop operation.

Fixed Bug

  • Fixed a problem when the Dugan Automixer component, the Room Combiner plus Automixer component, and the Source Selector component which has SOURCE set to eight places and compiles, the compile operation may fail or compiler may mistake resource calculation. Following this correction, the resource of the Source Selector component which has SOURCE set to eight has increased slightly.

MRX7-D V2.10

New Functions

  • Added an Acoustic Echo Canceller component.
  • Added a revolabs control component.

Fixed bugs

  • Fixed a problem when a link master was actively being controlled from a 3rd party remote controller, the MRX might not receive control command from the MRX Designer, DCP, Wireless CCP , ProVisionaire Touch and a 3rd party remote controller.
  • Fixed a problem when commands were sent to the MRX from a 3rd party remote controller, unexpected actions resulted for the following parameter and condition:
    • The set series, when the MRX receives a large amount of commands, the MRX sets the value and may transmit an Internal Error notification, and may transmit a NOTIFY notification when the value is changed.

MTX5-D V2.10 / MTX3 V2.10

Fixed Bug

  • Fixed a problem when commands were sent to the MTX from a 3rd party remote controller, unexpected actions resulted for the following parameter and condition:
    • The Frequency parameter of PEQ, when the MTX receives a value exceeding the maximum, the MTX sets the adjusted maximum and will transmit that value not with OKm but with an OK notification.

EXi8 V2.10 / EXo8 V2.10 / XMV V2.10

No change in this version, but firmware version number is updated to match other devices.

NOTICE

  • In the Dante model, Dante Device Labels can be changed arbitrarily and permanently. These changes can be made from the Dante Controller software. However, since the five initial characters are used for device identification (decided by UNIT ID), they should not be changed. The 6th character and subsequent ones can be changed arbitrarily. Moreover, the following rules concerning Dante Device Labels are common to all Dante devices (and not just this one):
    • Conventional characters (alphabetical uppercase or lowercase), numerals, or hyphens (-) can be used.
    • A maximum of 31 characters can be entered.
  • When you change the frequency of a clock source supplied externally, also make sure to change the Dante word clock setting using MTX-MRX Editor or Dante Controller. When you change a setting by MTX-MRX Editor, choose System Word Clock Fs appropriately in the "Word Clock" dialog box of MTX-MRX Editor, and synchronize by "To Device." When you change a setting by Dante Controller, please refer to the help function or user's guide of Dante Controller. 
    Keep in mind that the entire system may be affected by the settings in a single part. Major problems can occur when a device not intended to be a part of the system is set to a word clock setting that the other Dante devices do not support.
