ZIMO system update

Software update for MX10, MX10EC, MX32, MX32FU, MX33, MX33FU

Each of these system products (base units, controllers) has a USB socket for software updates (and for loading other data).
A USB stick containing a container file with the new software versions for several products (such as MX10, MX32, MX33) is plugged into this socket.
This container file also contains data files for symbols, images, texts or fonts.

The release of new software for 1 device (e.g. MX33) can, but does not necessarily have to mean new software for another (e.g. MX10). A new container file may therefore also contain older, still current software versions.
New software files of a container file are highlighted in the download area below. For example: MX33 is new, MX32 is included unchanged.

Der Update-Verlauf

The USB stick with the container file for the updates is inserted into EACH device in turn in order to carry out the updates - i.e. into the MX10 command station and all controllers, provided there are changes for the respective devices.

After inserting the USB stick, a list for selecting the desired activity is displayed.
This is done using the rotary knob (on the MX10) or the scroll wheel (MX32/MX33). The following item is usually executed:
"MX10 Update all" or "Automatic MX32 Update" or "Automatic MX33 Update",
Start the process by pressing the rotary knob (MX10) or the A button (MX32/MX33).

During the update process (which only takes a few seconds on the MX10, but may take several minutes on the MX32 and MX33 due to the graphics and photos to be loaded), the USB stick or power supply must of course never be removed.
At the end, you will be prompted to "Remove USB stick".
The device restarts automatically and is ready for operation again after the following start-up.

RECOMMENDATION: After updating the MX10, a cold start should be carried out, i.e. disconnection from the power supply for approx. 1/2 minute to ensure that internal capacitors are completely discharged.

Preparing the USB stick

  • Format the original ZIMO stick or commercially available USB stick with FAT32 (!)
    (new ones often have ExFAT)
  • Download container file (zip format) from this page
  • Unzip the zip file and save it to the USB stick
Notes on updates of older software and/or devices
RECOMMENDATION for MX32-CONTROLLER with SW version before 1.26.0001:

Before the update, back up the data, especially the Loco DB (object database) and, depending on its existence and importance, the other databases too.
Instructions below in the respective update info or see MX32 operating instructions.
Updates after SW version 1.26.0001 save automatically!

NOTE:

When using an MX32 on the MX1 command station (2000 or HS) with MX1-SW version 3.06, the MX32-SW version 01.18.0067 is required.

WARNING:

If you use ZIMO MX821 accessory decoders or MX820 turnout decoders with a software version 3.0 (MX821 series) or older, or 5.0 (MX820 series) or older in your system, you should UPDATE them BEFORE you load this system software version! Otherwise, these decoders may be inadvertently reprogrammed.

NOTE: V3 of this update also includes the MX10EC and a correction for the MX33

News MX33

  • Moment/duration is now stored in GUI
  • In E-0 (Config) ‘view screenshots’ now possible
  • MX33 starting statistics, new format: Since the screen is only displayed for a very short time, it is stored and can be accessed at any time during operation under E-0 -> starting statistics.
  • Battery charging now with higher current (aprox. 30% faster)
  • Battery charging via USB (currently only in the following way: before switching off MX10, connect MX33 to USB power supply, switch off MX10, MX33 will not switch off until battery is full)
  • Delete an active locomotive from the LoR with the C-key in LOCO possible
  • PU&SYS is now called SYS DB
  • Loco image database: E-0 -> Clear Data, individual images can be deleted (previously, all images were deleted)

Container file with full versions for MX10, MX10EC, MX32, MX32FU, MX33, MX33FU

The .zip folder contains the update file, not the fonts; these have not changed since 01.20.0001, therefore NO reloading of fonts is actually necessary.
If the fonts are missing, download the file Fonts120.zip and unzip it (along with the other update files) onto the USB stick. Then follow the instructions on the device.
Further information below in the archive at software version 01.20.0001.
