Software & Firmware Archives

Important

• ULX-D 2.X firmware versions are incompatible with ULX-D or QLX-D 1.X firmware versions. To ensure all receivers and transmitters in a configuration function with each other, update all devices to the same firmware version.

Improvement

• Support new hardware revisions of ULX-D. New revisions can't be downgraded below version 2.3.4.

Known Issues

• New hardware revisions of ULX-D version 2.3.4 are not compatible with SystemOn 2.0-3.0.1.
• ULX-D devices on J50A or L50A frequency bands are not compatible with SystemOn 2.0-3.0.1.

Notes

• User Guide
• ULXD1/2 transmitters used with receivers must be updated via IR sync. After a receiver is updated, follow these steps:
  1. Go to the receiver menu: DEVICE UTILITIES > TX FW UPDATE
  2. Align the infrared ports with the transmitter
  3. Press ENTER
• To operate ULX-D version 2.3.4 devices with other Shure networked systems and software, see the following list of minimum versions:
  • ULX-D ULXD1/2/6/8 Transmitters and ULXD4/4D/4Q Receivers 2.3.4
  • SBC250/450/850 Networked Charging Stations 2.3.4

Important

• ULXD4D and ULXD4Q receivers running firmware prior to 1.4.8 must be updated to 1.4.8 before updating to newer versions.
• ULXD4D and ULXD4Q receivers running firmware between 1.4.8 and 2.0.28 must be updated to 2.0.28 before updating to newer versions.
• After 2.0.28 is installed, ULXD4D and ULXD4Q receivers can be updated to the latest available firmware version.
• ULX-D devices that are downgrading to 1.5.6 may report a false failure.
  • Workaround: Because this is a false failure, closing the send updates window and going to the main page, Shure Update Utility will show green for the firmware version.
• ULX-D 2.X firmware versions are incompatible with ULX-D or QLX-D 1.X firmware versions. To ensure all receivers and transmitters in a configuration function with each other, update all devices to the same firmware version.
