Software Option Upgrade
The following MTM4UP upgrades require that you apply the new option key
that is supplied with the upgrade kit before the upgrade will be enabled:
HAll software option upgrades (MTM4UP 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, and 07)
HHardware upgrade MTM4UP QC (QAM Annex C interface card)
Option Keys
The option key is a unique string of alphanumeric characters of the form
nnnnn−nnnnn−nnnnn−nnnnn. A single option key can enable one or more
software options.
Each option key is unique and is generated for a specific MTM400 or
MTM400A monitor using the serial number and MAC address of that monitor.
An option key that is generated for one monitor will not work when applied to
another monitor.
The serial number identifies a specific MTM400 or MTM400A monitor. The
MAC address identifies the Transport Stream Processor board that is installed in
the monitor. If there is a hardware failure and the Transport Stream Processor
board is replaced, a new option key will need to be issued because the monitor
will then have a different MAC address. The MAC address is printed on the label
on the top cover of the monitor and above the network port on the rear panel.
Version 01h
MTM4UP Upgrade Instructions
If you ordered a software option upgrade, this kit includes both a document and a

Verifying the Software Option Upgrade
Due to differences in the RUI versions that were shipped on the MTM400 and
MTM400A monitors, separate verification instructions for the RUI versions are
provided.
Upgrade Verification
(RUI v2.6.1 and below)
If RUI v2.6.1 or below is installed on your monitor, perform the following steps
to verify the software option upgrade:
1. If you logged off the monitor after you performed the upgrade, perform steps
1 through 7 starting on page 43. Otherwise, in the Device view of the
upgraded monitor, click Info to open the Information screen. (See
Figure 32.)
2. Verify that all of the software options that were enabled on the monitor prior
to the upgrade are still enabled.
3. Verify that the new software options you purchased with this upgrade are
now enabled. Those options are listed on the option key documentation.
As an example, Figure 32 shows that options 04 and 05 have been enabled,
and that options 01, 02, and 03 are still enabled as they were prior to the
upgrade. (See Figure 24 on page 45.)
CAUTION. When it is necessary after a repair, the Tektronix service center uses
the option key listed on the monitor label to reenable the software options for
your monitor. If you do not apply the new option key label supplied with the
upgrade kit to the top cover of the monitor and your monitor is sent to Tektronix
for repair, the monitor might be returned to you without all of your software
options enabled.
