Anyone been brave enough yet?

After the previous version debacle!

I have not! I'm going to let this one incubate a bit before putting my toe in the water! I definitely wouldn't have "tried" it on a holiday weekend (in the USA).

if nobody tries, how can Barco find out if it works or not?? [Wink]

You first!

Feel lucky, PUNK!?!

I tried it on a DP2K-12C last week. Took a long time to finish but no issues during or after updating.
I have a 12C, 15C and a DP4K-23B along the road this week [uhoh]

Is ICP ver. 4.5.454 the latest fashion for Barco?
/M.E.

Posted by Steve Guttag (Member # 268) on 11-28-2016, 12:14 PM:

ICP 4.5.454 is the latest that Barco (or I think anyone) offers. It is safe. I have it on a few projectors.

Posted by Magnus Eriksson (Member # 6085) on 11-28-2016, 12:32 PM:

OK, wish me luck then.
I'll keep you posted.

We might have it on our DP4K-30L. It was only installed last week, and the Barco tech updated the software to whatever is the latest version while he was installing it. I'll check tomorrow (don't have remote access to it at yet, and am at home today).

If so, no issues with the projector end of things so far, though I have encountered one or two minor bugs in the Alchemy's web front end.

Posted by Steve Guttag (Member # 268) on 11-28-2016, 03:55 PM:

Leo...the L and the rest do not use the same software. The L series all use ICMPs so the ICP software isn't there at all!

Posted by Pete Naples (Member # 761) on 11-29-2016, 04:31 AM:

I've got both current ICP and Barco firmware on a handfull of different machines now.

No deaths, as yet.

Posted by Magnus Eriksson (Member # 6085) on 11-29-2016, 01:59 PM:

Another DP2K-12C updated. No problems.
/M.E.

Note, I had 4 successful updates before BAM on the 5th one. Took out the Cinema Controller and the CLO modules. I note that this "fix" seems to be for the CLO module and perhaps the Cinema Controller just had a bad update or there was an interaction.

Note, the four that have the evil 2.1.12 are still running on that version, without incident.

Posted by Pete Naples (Member # 761) on 11-29-2016, 04:10 PM:

Likewise, the only four I put on 2.1.12 went without a hitch and have not missed a beat since. Kinotons, as it happens. The update literally just finished on the last one when I got the message to stop using it.

We've got a couple of dozen on 2.1.13 now, no issues thus far.

Have it installed on 20 projectors; so far no issues.

Posted by Steve Guttag (Member # 268) on 12-01-2016, 04:29 AM:

I installed it on my first one...no issues.

Posted by Jose Angel Velasco (Member # 4706) on 12-02-2016, 08:11 AM:

This is the version of what?

Posted by Steve Guttag (Member # 268) on 12-02-2016, 11:14 AM:

It is in the topic: Barco version 2.1.13

Posted by Jose Angel Velasco (Member # 4706) on 12-05-2016, 09:02 AM:

No, I'm asking for what Barco device. This is a version of ICP, firmware...

Posted by Steve Guttag (Member # 268) on 12-05-2016, 11:33 AM:

Oh...standard series 2 (xenon) based projectors. This is also the first version where they are harmonizing between the CLP projectors (laser-phosphor wheel) so the CLP version of the software is also 2.1.13. That said, they are implying that it is the same software, regardless and the software recognizes what projector it is working on and configures appropriately.

Note, I'm up to about a dozen successful installs without any hint of trouble.
