Author Topic: System Update Disc V2.40.24 Shawn Arndt Film Handler Posts: 37 From: South Milwaukee, Wisconsin Registered: Aug 2012 posted 11-14-2012 11:58 AM                        Does anyone have this for the DTS-6D upgrade? I bought an older 6D and need it for the upgrade. New SCSI board is installed but I do not have access nor have I found anyone that has this disc. Cheers and Thanks in advance.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 11-14-2012 04:05 PM                     That sounds like a DTS XD10 upgrade, not 6D. You do not need software for the 6D, it comes with every DTS disk. You may need the latest eeprom on the timecode board, but no software is required.  |  IP: Logged Shawn Arndt Film Handler Posts: 37 From: South Milwaukee, Wisconsin Registered: Aug 2012 posted 11-14-2012 04:12 PM                        I do have the V1.46 eeprom ..... so what you're saying is the machine should not need the software update?  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 퍼항시, 경상푹도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 11-15-2012 08:31 PM                     quote: The current software for the DTS-6D is V1.46 on U14 D422 timecode card. If a software update is needed, contact techsupport@datasat.com Taken from datasat's website.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 11-17-2012 04:20 AM                     Definitely no sw update is required, the DTS6/6D are very basic machines and the "software" they run is run at every boot from the CDROM - if you stick one in your PC you will find a DTS.EXE file. If you have replaced the SCSI board and the system is working well, there is nothing else to be done. The DTS note is about the 1.46 timecode chip. If you already have it you're ok.  |  IP: Logged Shawn Arndt Film Handler Posts: 37 From: South Milwaukee, Wisconsin Registered: Aug 2012 posted 11-17-2012 11:49 AM                        Cool.
