REPEATER OS1.1 Release Notes
The following document gives a detailed look at the changes made between
Repeater OS1.0 and OS1.1 (released October 2001). For additions and changes
to the MIDI control of Repeater please refer to the document titled MIDI, 
CC 
and
PC Implementation
(http://www.electrxpro.com/support/softwareupdates.html)
OS1.1 Software installation instructions
1. Download the new software (in either Mac “.SIT” or PC “.ZIP” 
format) from
http://www.electrixpro.com/support/softwareupdates.html
2. Make sure that you have correctly installed your CompactFlash reader* to
your computer (contact the reader’s manufacturer if you are encountering
problems).
3. Open the folder titled “Repeater_OS1-1” and locate the file 
“repr1-10.raf”
4. Insert a CompactFlash card into the reader and copy the file “repr 1-
10.raf” onto the card. Note: The OS update requires 350K of space on the
CompactFlash card.
5. Unplug Repeater’s power supply.
6. Insert the CompactFlash card containing the new software into Repeater.
7. Connect Repeater’s power supply and check to make sure that the supply
has power (green light on supply will be on).
8. The unit will display “Starting…” and then the prompt “BOOT 
FILES”. After
a moment the display will show a number on the left and a filename on the
right. Using the encoders, select “repr1-10” (note that no .raf 
extension 
will
be displayed). When selected, press “Record” to start the upload 
process.
Pressing stop would cancel the installation and boot Repeater with the
pre-existing OS version.
9. The unit will display “Verifying”, “Loading” with a countdown, 
and then
when the process is completed will display “Starting…” and then the
version banner “REPEATER1-1” will appear before the unit is ready.
10. Your Repeater is now updated to OS1.1
*CompactFlash readers are widely available from the same resellers who
handle CompactFlash cards. They can be purchased with a variety of
connections and range in price from $30 - $70, depending on complexity.
The cheaper readers will still get the job done, allowing you to upgrade
your Repeater AND move loops to the computer domain.
