Firmware Version 1.0.3.1.00 incorporates the following additional functions and modifications:

  1. By making the fan run during REC PAUSE, new specifications have been introduced that extend the length of time the fan stops running during recording. The unit was configured so that no message would appear to inform the user that the fan will start spinning; this was done in order to improve visibility. The user can check if the fan is spinning or not by referring to the conventional icon display.

  2. Remote control of the WFT-E6 and Wi-Fi peripherals on an ad-hoc connection using iOS6/Safari has been made possible.

  3. The phases of the GENLOCK Reference Signal and the 3G-SDI terminal/MON. terminal’s output have been matched.

  4. The polarity of the XLR terminal has been modified to improve compatibility with external audio devices. The pin configuration has been modified to be consistent with the description in the Instruction Manual. Before the Firmware update, the pin configuration for the XLR jack was (pin1: shield, pin2: cold, pin3: hot). After the Firmware update, the pin configuration for the XLR jack will be (pin1: shield, pin2: hot, pin3: cold). The XLR pin configuration meets the international AES standard recommendation. The firmware update will avoid the scenario where use of the unit in combination with a device of different polarity than the XLR terminals would result in reduced sound levels due to a reversal of the phase relationship.

Firmware Version 1.0.3.1.00 is for Cinema EOS C500 and EOS C500 PL cameras with Firmware Version 1.0.1.1.00. If your camera’s firmware is already Version 1.0.3.1.00, it is not necessary to update the firmware.

Once the camera is updated to the latest firmware version, it cannot be restored to a previous version.
