Updating the Numark iCDX

In order to update the system software on your iCDX, you will need to obtain or create a System Software CD. If you already have a System Software CD, proceed to the Update Procedure section below.
Creating an iCDX Update CD
1. 2. 3. 4. Go to: http://www.numark.com/icdx Click on, Documents & Downloads Then, click on the link titled iCDX - Firmware Update v0.50 (8MB) Once downloaded to your computer, uncompress the icdx_050.zip file. The file youll download is a.zip file that needs to be uncompressed, or un-zipped. Many computers come with a utility pre-installed to un-zip.zip files. Simply doubleclicking on the.zip file will often open the utility and allow you to uncompress the file. Windows Users: If double-clicking the file does not automatically uncompress it, try right-clicking the file, and selecting Explore, or Extract. These options should allow you to access the contents of the file. If needed, you can download a free un-zipping utility for the PC called WinRar at http://download.com Macintosh Users: Macintosh users of OS 10.3 or later can simply double-click the file to un-zip it. Macintosh users of earlier operating systems can download a free unzipping utility called Stuffit Expander at http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/trial.html Once un-zipped, youll have an.iso file which needs to be burned as an ISO CDR. The file will be called iCDX_050.iso. 5. Burn an ISO formatted CD from the iCDX_050.iso file. Most CD burning programs cannot burn CDRs in ISO format. Windows Users: You can download a free program for the PC that can burn ISO CDs at: http://www.burn4free.com This will allow you to burn the OS file to an ISO formatted CD-R disk. 1. When you launch Burn For Free for the first time, it will ask you if you want to open the program in Easy Mode or Expert Mode. Choose Expert Mode. 2. In Burn4Free, click on the icon that says Burn ISO. If you dont see this icon, click on the View menu at the top of the screen and select Switch to Expert Mode. You should then see the Burn ISO icon. 3. You will be prompted to locate the.iso file to be burned to disk. Use this window to navigate to the iCDX_050.iso file, double-click it and then select Open. When you burn the disk, do so at the slowest speed possible. It is a small file, and wont take long to burn.
Macintosh Users: You can use the program Disk Utility to burn.ISO disks. 4. Open the Disk Utility which is located in the Utilities Folder inside your Applications folder. 5. Click on the Images menu at the top of the screen, and choose Burn. 6. In the Select Image to Burn window that opens, navigate to the iCDX_050.iso file which you downloaded. Highlight it and click Burn. 7. Insert a blank CD-R into your computer, and click Burn. When you burn the disk, do so at the slowest speed possible. It is a small file, and wont take long to burn.

* Due to recent changes made by Apple Computer in their iPod hardware, the latest iPod production models may not be compatible with the Numark iCDX. Most dock mountable iPods manufactured prior to Fall 2006 remain compatible with the iCDX. Regrettably, there is no way to visually determine if a specific iPod model will function properly with the iCDX. iCDX users are encouraged to use any mass storage class compliant USB thumb drive, hard drive, external music player or dock mountable iPods manufactured prior to Fall 2006.
