How do I update the software on my MX2424?
Whenever a new version of MX-OS becomes available it will be posted to the TASCAM Web site for download (http://www.tascam.com). Archived files for both Mac and PC will be posted along with documentation in PDF format (as needed). The new version of MX-OS will be written to the TL-Media
card, which is then used to update the flash ROM in the MX-2424. The steps below detail the process of updating the version of MX-OS in an MX-2424:
1. Download the latest version of MX-OS from the TASCAM web site. Place the file into the desired folder that will contain the MX-OS file and its documentation. Extract the MX-OS file and documentation files into that folder.
2. Launch the ViewNet GUI application.
3. Insert the TL Media card that will be used to store the new MX-OS and update the MX-2424. (NOTE: Any data on the TL Media card will be lost during this process.)
4. From the ViewNet Network Screen highlight the MX-2424 that has the TL Media card inserted or make it active in the Edit Screen by clicking on its Connection button as shown below. The button will turn blue and the MX-2424 will appear in the Edit Screen.
5. Select Update MX Software from the Machine Menu.
6. Locate the MX-OS file that was created by the self-extracting archive and Open it.
7. The TL Media card will be formatted, this takes about 2 minutes. (NOTE: This may take longer on a Macintosh. When using a Mac, all applications that are using the Ethernet port must be shut down.) Then the new version of MX-OS will be written to the TL Media card. The LCD will display the
progress of writing data blocks to the TL Media card. When finished, Update Software Completed will be displayed in the LCD and instructions will be displayed in ViewNet.
8. Leave the TL Media card in its slot and cycle the power on the MX-2424. The Flash ROM in the MX-2424 will be updated with the MX-OS from the TL Media card.
9. When the update is completed, cycle the power on the MX-2424 again to complete the update.
10. If the RC-2424 is connected then its software will be automatically updated.

Offer applies only to single-receipt qualifying purchases. Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
