Hi,

To me this suggests there is a issue with the firmware load; as I would expect it to be 2.5b9, however as I have not owned a 568 I can't be 100% certain.

Can you confirm that you have followed Meridian 568v2.5 upgrade instuctions when upgrading the firmware.

Esp. that you selected the .MFP file and not a .MFU file.
�WinFUP.exe�. Use the �...� button to find the file �568_25.mfp�

Note, the 568v2.5 checks what firmware version is loaded. During firmware upgrade it will display �Bad software� every time it boots. This is normal HOWEVER it will not occur once all files are successfully loaded.

So please double check after all the firmware files have loaded; power the 568 off/on and check that �Bad software� is NOT displayed.

Also, until you retype the unit to a factory preset or download a valid settings file the product will flash
�Bad EEPROM�

Again after re-typing; power the 568 off/on and check that this �Bad software� is NOT display.


Only when ALL is ok (no error messages on the 568 display), can you attempt to configure the unit.

BTW: With the 568 in standby, if you press the display button; it will display the firmware version.

Regards,
Carl
