Tiptop Trigger Riot - Manual (Page 22)

Boot up Functions:
To check the Riot firmware version hold the Mode button and power up the unit.
The version will be displayed and would look something like that (‘1b00’). Firmware
is released periodically as we find bugs, add new features, or just keep on improv-
ing performance of the machine. The latest firmware code is available to download
at the Trigger Riot product page at www.tiptopaudio.com. A video demonstrating
how to upgrade is included there.
To upgrade your Trigger Riot do the following:
1. Download the file “image.hex” from our website to your computer and then copy
it to a DOS FAT32 format USB thumb drive. Make sure to put the file in the main
directory and do not change the name of the file or add anything to it.
2. Plug the thumb drive into the USB socket on the back of the Trigger Riot, press
and hold the lower right button MUTE/SEL D and turn the power on.
The Clock Shift light will blink to indicate a new code is being uploaded, you can
release the button. Once done the module will boot up and the display with show
RIOT followed by preset/bank number. You’re done.
The Trigger Riot uses a non-volatile memory for saving presets and other
information. Clearing the memory after code upgrades is recommended, but in most
cases is not a must, as a memory clear will erase any presets you might have
saved.
To clear the memory, hold down the RST/CLR button and power up the unit. This
resets all of the presets in every bank to the default values. as soon as it finishes,
the module will boot up as normal with RIOT showing up on the display.
We hope this manual served you well and helped you join the Riot. Now go make
music, modular synth music.
