Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components
commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD). Examples of typical ESD devices are integrated
circuits and some field-effect transistors and semiconductor chip components. The following techniques should
be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off
any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a
commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons
prior to applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESD devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface
such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ESD devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static" can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESD devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESD
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ESD device from its protective package until immediately before you are
ready to install it. (Most replacement ESD devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by
conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive materials).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ESD device, touch the
protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will by installed.
CAUTION : BE SURE NO POWER IS APPLIED TO THE CHASSIS OR CIRCUIT, AND OBSERVE ALL OTHER
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handing unpackaged replacement ESD devices. (Otherwise harmless motion
such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate
static electricity sufficient to damage an ESD device).

SOFTWARE UPDATE METHOD
USB update for NB5540/4540/3540
DSP_NB5540.rom is an update fi le for NB5540 Main/DSP software.
DSP_NB4540.rom is an update fi le for NB4540 Main/DSP software.
DSP_NB3540.rom is an update fi le for NB3540 Main/DSP software.
EQ_PRG_NB5540.bin is an update fi le for NB5540 EQ software.
EQ_PRG_NB4540.bin is an update fi le for NB4540 EQ software.
EQ_PRG_NB3540.bin is an update fi le for NB3540 EQ Software.
WIRELESS_TX.bin is an update fi le for Wireless TX(MAIN SET) software.
WIRELESS_RX.bin is an update fi le for Wireless TX(Woofer) software.
Step 1 : Creating a Firmware Update Device
You can create a fi rmware update fi les on your USB memory device(FAT32).
To create a fi rmware update in a USB memory device, copy the update fi le to the USB device.
Preparation:
1. Insert a USB memory device into the PC.
2. Copy the latest version of fi rmware update fi les to the USB drive.
(You do not need to create directory, the fi les will be saved in the root directory.)
3. It is impossible to multiple update at same time. (It can’t select update fi le. But, it has an update priority.
An update priority is as follows. <DSP, Wireless RX, Wireless TX, EQ>)
The USB memory device should have at least 2 MB of free space to save the fi rmware update fi les.
Step 2 : Updating the speaker bar(NB5540/4540/3540)
If you copy a update fi le to an USB memory, you can update.
1. Turn on the speaker bar and move to USB function.
2. Insert USB memory that contains the update fi le of the latest fi rmware version into the speaker bar.
- Insert the USB memory device to the USB port of the speaker bar.
3-1. If you insert an USB memory that contains the DSP update fi le, it displays “DSP UP” on FLD.
And it starts DSP update. Updating DSP Software will take about 1 minutes.
3-2. If you insert an USB memory that contains the EQ update fi le, it displays “EQ UP” on FLD.
And it starts EQ update. Updating EQ Software will take about 3 ~ 5 sec.
3-3. If you insert an USB memory that contains the WIRELESS TX update fi le, it displays “UPDATE” on FLD.
WR“00”indicates a progress percentage. And it starts Wireless TX update.
Updating Wireless TX Software will take about 2 minutes.
3-4. If you insert an USB memory that contains the WIRELESS RX update fi le, it displays “UPDATE” on FLD.
SEND “00” indicates a progress percentage. And it starts Wireless RX update.
Updating Wireless RX Software will take about 2 minutes.
CAUTION : Do not turn off the power during fi rmware update.
4. After update, it turns off power automatically.
5. Disconnect the power cord of the main unit and the wireless subwoofer.
and connect them again after the LED of the main unit and the wireless subwoofer is fully turned off.
6. The system now operates with the new version.
