Firmware Updates

From time to time the Scribe EC Standalone’s internal “firmware” may need updating to
add new features or improve existing functions. Firmware is easily updated by loading a
“Firmware Update CD” into the system. The latest version of firmware will be available
for downloading to your computer from the MF DIGITAL web site:
www.MFDIGITAL.com
Once a firmware image file is downloaded, a “Firmware Update CD” can then be written
using a computer, a CD-R/RW recorder, and most popular premastering programs (such
as: Adaptec Easy CD Creator and Toast, CeQuadrat WinOnCD, Ahead Nero, NTI CD-
Maker, and others). Refer to your premastering software documentation for details on
how to record a disc from an image file.

After having created a “Firmware Update CD”, perform the following steps to update the
Scribe EC Standalone firmware:

• With the system turned ON, load the “Firmware Update CD” into the

top CD-R/RW or DVD±R/±RW recorder.

• Turn off the power to the Scribe EC Standalone.
• Turn on the power to the Scribe EC Standalone.
• The system will startup:

• You will see the “Initializing System” screen:

• You will see the upgrade firmware screen:

• Select “Yes” to upgrade the firmware.
• Upon completion, the system will automatically reboot and the

following screen will appear:

• Remove the CD at this time.
