The FREE FireBall E2 software update is available to all FireBall E-40 and E-120 customers. The E2 software update contains many new features and as such, there exists the possibility to cause issues with some current installations that are dependent upon these features. It is our goal to make you aware of these new features and any changes to the current E-40/120 features set before you agree to receive the update.

In order for your FireBall to receive the update, it is important that you thoroughly read the following information and accept the terms of the update. Once you complete this form, you will be instructed on how to obtain the update for your FireBall E-40 or E-120.

NEW FEATURES
There are many new features for your FireBall E-40/120 that are derived from the feature set of the new Escient FireBall E2-300 Music Manager.

• Built-in Web Server
• File Sharing
• Backup Capability (using the optional FBK-300 Backup Kit)
• FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) audio support
• iPod and other Third Party MP3 Player integration (requires additional software for your Mac or PC)
• Disc Insert Preferences
• Bulk Recording from External Changers
• Support for the Sony DVP-777ES DVD/CD Changer
• New Touch panel GUI
• User Interface Enhancements

REMOVED FEATURES

• USB Support
• OpenGlobe® Web Interface accessed via the OG remote button
• WAV audio format replaced by FLAC
• Pipeline support

• Once you update to the new E2 feature set it will not be possible to revert to the previous software version without restoring the system to it's original factory default condition. Restoring the system to factory default condition will erase all personal data such as media files, cover art, playlists, custom groups, library edits, and system configurations.
• A FireBall connected to third party control system like AMX, Crestron, Elan, etc… should be tested for compatibility once the update is installed. Escient has not removed any of the external control commands available on the E software platform, but cannot guarantee that your installation will not break due to the highly customizable nature of these installations. Escient will not be responsible for any additional costs resulting from custom reprogramming requirements.
• The OG button on the remote and keyboard are reprogrammed as the toggle All/None function
• Existing WAV files will continue to work, but you can not record new WAV files. The FLAC encoder should be used to store true CD quality audio.
• Importing WAV files using the File Sharing interface will cause the WAV files to automatically be converted into the currently selected audio format (MP3 or FLAC)
