Upgrading a TC M6000

This is a short article on how to update the Firmware of a M6000 (Mk1) to the latest version.

Prerequisite:

  • a fully working M6000 Mk1 unit
  • running on a older firmware version (for example « Frame SW Version 4.00 », « DSP SW Version: 4.02 », « Ethernet SW Version: 6.00 »)
  • a floppy disk or an USB stick if you’ve upgraded to a GoTek drive

You can upgrade to the following versions:

  • Frame SW Version 6.50
  • DSP SW Version: 6.50
  • Ethernet SW Version: 8.10

Download the following archive and uncompress it:

Start by updating the Frame and Ethernet firmwares:

  • Copy the contents of the « Boot » folder to a blank floppy disk (or USB stick)
  • Turn your M6000 off
  • Insert the floppy
  • Turn the M6000 on
  • The floppy disk drive LED will turn on. The M6000 LED will blink from green to orange/red
  • After a few minutes (5-10) it will turn back to green and your M6000 will boot

Now repeat the process with the « DSP » folder (copy to a blank disk, turn off, turn on, etc.).
