Dear All,
I know that this is a difficult topic to discuss in the forum but wondering if anyone can help....Purchased DCS Wifi module at Greenberg show today...My DCS system is old ...not rev L for sure....never upgraded software... I hook up all the cables etc ...I get the serial cable to recognize TIU on Com 3...but when I go to the next step of transferring software to the TIU I can not open the prompt for the .DCSt file...nothing happens when I click open file.... I have followed these instructions below....several times...do I need to upload older software versions first before going to Version 5? Thanks in advance...Robert
Step 1: Updating the TIU
**When updating to a different version of DCS software in your TIU and remote, you should always start by updating the TIU first.**
- Connect your TIU to the computer using either the 9 pin serial or USB cable (Your computer can already be booted up)
- Plug the 3.5mm stereo audio cable ends into the TIU's "Proto-Dispatch" & "Proto-cast" ports
- Connect the power supply to the Fixed 1 input port OR connect the Aux power supply to the Aux power port on the TIU
- Start the DCS Loader program
- Close out of any unnecessary programs or applications and do not use the computer while the update is in progress
- Click the load software to TIU Icon
- Carefully follow the instructions on the screen. (it will instruct you to connect the serial cable and 3.5mm audio cables)
- Then select the "*.DCSt" file (example: "tiu5p0.DCSt")
- The update process should start and will tell you when you are finished
