HOW TO USE - AS MIDI-CONTROLLER
If needed, updating the firmware in the Scenemaster is easy, just follow these steps:
Surf to the Scenemaster product page on our website (www.jbsystems.be) to check if new firmware is
available in the download section.
Download the file and unzip it: now you have a file named “SCM-1.SUP”
Put this file in a directory on your PC.
Connect the Scenemaster to one of the USB-inputs of your PC.
Turn the power of the Scenemaster OFF.
Press the “FLASH-button of channel 16” and the “PROGRAM-button” (8) together while you switch the
Scenemaster back on, you will notice 2 things:
The display on the Scenemaster shows “USb”
A new window, with directory named “SCENEMASTER” opens on your PC-screen.
This “SCENEMASTER” directory contains a file named “SCM-1.SUP”:
First delete the current file from the “SCENEMASTER” directory.
Now copy the new “SCM-1.SUP” file (downloaded from our website) in the directory.
Use the power switch (14) to switch the Scenemaster off.
After 5 seconds turn the unit back on: at startup the display will show the new software version.
Important remark:
do NOT switch the Scenemaster off while no new file was copied to the
“SCENEMASTER” directory, this will make the Scenemaster inoperable.
