MTX-MRX Editor V3.1.0 for Win10/8.1/7 and firmware V3.10-2 (Previous version)

• To update the firmware, please refer to the MTX/MRX/XMV/EXi8/EXo8 Firmware Update Guide.
• When the firmware of the device will update without compatibility version of editor, ensure that the MTX/MRX system is synchronized and saved to MTX-MRX Editor as a project file before performing the firmware update in order to ensure that your project data is not lost, and then perform the firmware upgrade using the latest version of MTX-MRX Editor. Ensure that the device is initialized after the update, and then open the previously saved project file using the latest MTX-MRX Editor and re-synchronize to the updated devices.
• When initializing Dante devices (MTX5-D, MRX7-D, PGM1 and Dante model of XMV), ensure that all other Dante devices on the network are disconnected or powered off. Otherwise initialization could take longer than necessary.
• To prevent damage to the SD memory card as well as loss of data, do not remove or insert the SD memory card while the device is on.
• Although MTX-MRX Editor shows 'Completed' after updating firmware, do not turn off the power of the device until the indicators on the front panel have stopped blinking.
• In the unlikely case of hardware failure, initialize the replacement device(s), confirm proper ID and DIP switch settings, and then resynchronize from MTX-MRX Editor to the device(s).
• When entering text into a text field inside a dialog box of MTX-MRX Editor using Input Method Editors, such as Microsoft IME, ensure that the mouse pointer is not clicked over another area of the open dialog window before converting and applying the text. This will cause the keyboard input to stop. Should this happen, close and re-open the dialog box.
• Do not enter the following characters in text fields in the MTX-MRX Editor.
  & < > “ ‘ / $’ \n (line feed) \t (tab)
  These characters may disappear or change into unexpected characters.
• When the project file created by MTX Editor V1.0x is opened with MTX-MRX Editor or MTX Editor V1.1x or later, [Play] selected by "SD Song Select & Play" in the “Preset” dialog, is changed to [No Assign]. In this case, manually change [No Assign] for all necessary Presets to [Play].
• Do not use the EEE function (*) of network switches in a Dante network. Although power management should be negotiated automatically in switches that support EEE, some switches do not perform the negotiation properly. This may cause EEE to be enabled in Dante networks when it is not appropriate, resulting in poor synchronization performance and occasional dropouts. Therefore we strongly recommend that:
  
  1. If you use managed switches, ensure that they allow EEE to be disabled. Make sure that EEE is disabled on all ports used for real-time Dante traffic.
  2. If you use unmanaged switches, make sure to not use network switches that support the EEE function, since EEE operation cannot be disabled in these switches.
  *EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that reduces switch power consumption during periods of low network traffic. It is also known as Green Ethernet and IEEE802.3az.
• When the MTX-MRX Editor changes Dante patch settings for large numbers of devices, it may take several minutes after synchronization is shown to be complete (in MTX-MRX Editor) for the patch to be established and audio to be heard.

Compatibility List

MTX-MRX Editor V3.1.0

New Functions

• Now supports the MCP1, PGM1, and PGX1 devices.
• Added the “I/O” screen, which allows you to make settings for the MTX’s inputs and outputs. Also, you can also make settings to specify whether a pilot tone is output from the digital output.
• Added a function in which the input source of XMV can be set as digital or analog for each channel.
• Added functions in which the input source of XMV can be set up for redundancy to a digital channel.
  • Backup mode: Switches to analog input when the pilot tone of the digital input is interrupted due to a broken connection or other problem. Set up the pilot tone in the "I/O" screen on the MTX, and set up with the "Oscillator" component on the MRX.
  • Override mode: Switches the digital input to a specified analog input when analog audio is detected.
• Added a “Gang Edit Group” feature that can link every MRX component. When using this link function, make sure that the MTX-MRX Editor and MTX/MRX system are online.
• Added the following sample files. Refer to the MTX Setup Manual or the MRX Setup Manual for the folder containing the sample files.
  • MRX7-D MTX5-D Style Configuration.mtx : This sample reproduces the MTX5-D using MRX7-D
  • MRX7-D PGM1 Paging Example.mtx : This sample reproduces the "PGM1&Paging Component" in Operation Manual of MRX Designer
  • MTX5-D PGM1 Paging Example.mtx : This sample reproduces the "PGM1&Paging Component" in Operation Manual of MTX-MRX Editor
  • MRX7-D+PGM1+MCP1 Fitness Gym.mtx : This sample reproduces Example 3 of the MRX Setup Manual
  • MTX5-D+PGM1 Shopping mall.mtx : This sample reproduces Example 5 of the MTX Setup Manual
  • MTX3+MCP1 cascade example.mtx : This sample reproduces Example 3 of the MTX Setup Manual

Enhancements

• Regardless of the online/offline status, the daylight saving time setting can be specified for all devices connected to the same network from the "Daylight Saving Time" dialog box. It also allows you to check device settings.
• Moved the setting of DNS Server and Default Gateway from “Clock” dialog box to “IP Address” dialog box.
• The channel name is now displayed on the top right of the input channel matrix in the "MATRIX" screen. The channel name will also be mirrored, if the channel name under a fader is edited.
• Added Shortcut Keys and Operation Manual in [About] menu of the MTX-MRX Editor.
• When User Defined Block is opened, the User Defined Block is moved to the forefront automatically.

• No change in this version; however, the firmware version number is updated to match other devices.

MCP1 V3.10

• New release.

PGM1 / PGX1 V3.10

• New release.

Known issues

• In the "Dante Information" dialog of MTX-MRX Editor, "Dante(A) FW" is displayed as 3.10.5.50987013 instead of 3.10.5.1. Confirm the correct version number on the Dante Controller.
• If the Device Latency was set to 2 msec or 5 msec by the Dante Controller, the MTX-MRX Editor would display the setting as 1 msec. Confirm the correct latency value on the Dante Controller.
• If the DHCP mode is used, the MTX-MRX Editor, MTX5-D, and MRX7-D will not recognize PGM1.

NOTICE

• In the Dante model, Dante Device Labels can be changed arbitrarily and permanently. These changes can be made from the Dante Controller software. 
  However, since the five initial characters are used for device identification (decided by UNIT ID), they should not be changed. The 6th character and subsequent ones can be changed arbitrarily. 
  Moreover, the following rules concerning Dante Device Labels are common to all Dante devices (and not just this one):
  • Conventional characters (alphabetical uppercase or lowercase), numerals, or hyphens (-) can be used.
  • A maximum of 31 characters can be entered.
• When you change the frequency of a clock source supplied externally, also make sure to change the Dante word clock setting using MTX-MRX Editor or Dante Controller. 
  When you change a setting by MTX-MRX Editor, choose System Word Clock Fs appropriately in the "Word Clock" dialog box of MTX-MRX Editor, and synchronize by "To Device." 
  When you change a setting by Dante Controller, please refer to the help function or user's guide of Dante Controller. 
  Keep in mind that the entire system may be affected by the settings in a single part. Major problems can occur when a device not intended to be a part of the system is set to a word clock setting that the other Dante devices do not support.
