CRMX2 UPGRADE PROCEDURE DMG MINI™, DMG SL1™, DMG MAXI™

This instruction sheet is for updating the LumenRadio CRMX chip inside the DMG MINI, DMG SL1, and DMG MAXI fixtures to CRMX2. DMG DASH w/ CRMX fixtures can be updated to CRMX2 by updating the fixture’s firmware via the myMIX™ app.
In order to upgrade the LumenRadio CRMX chip to CRMX2, a temporary firmware needs to be installed in the DMG MAXI and the MIX Controller for the DMG MINI & SL1.
IMPORTANT: This temporary firmware is only used to upgrade the CRMX chip to CRMX². Once the firmware has been installed and the CRMX2 update is complete, the MIX 2.1 Firmware must be reinstalled to make the controller/fixture functional again.
Once the temporary firmware and drivers have been downloaded, the CRMX2 upgrade process takes about two minutes. A progress indicator is displayed during the update process.
To begin, download the CRMX2 Firmware Update.zip file to a PC (Windows 10 or higher) and follow the steps below.
