Verifying and Uploading Fixture Software
Check the display in the Menu Locked mode to identify the Software version loaded
on that fixture. Verify that the version displayed by the fixture is the latest available.
The latest software for x.SpotXtreme fixtures is available in the support section of
the High End Systems® web site (www.highend.com). If a software upgrade is
required, there are three ways to upload new software to x.SpotXtreme fixtures:
1. Attach a High End Systems Upload Dongle to the computer and upload the
software to the x.SpotXtreme fixture.
A High End Systems Upload Dongle requires a 386-based (or faster) computer,

MS DOS
version 3.3 (or later) or Windows 95/98/ME, and one MB of free disk
space. To obtain an Upload Dongle (with installation and operation instructions),
contact your High End Systems dealer/distributor (see "Contacting High End
Systems®" on page -ii).
2. Crossload software from one fixture that contains the new software to all other
x.SpotXtreme fixtures on the link. See "Crossloading Fixture Software" on page
3-21.
3. Upload the new software to all x.SpotXtreme fixtures on the link using a
HandShake™ handheld controller from High End Systems.
Note: Before uploading new software, disconnect any controllers, bypass any serial
data distributors and/or data line optoisolators, and bypass or make sure that
any fixtures using RS-422 communications (such as Dataflash
strobes, and Intellabeam
fixtures on the link. These devices will block communication with any other
