You may find the following steps helpful when updating the Ki Pro:

1) Launch “System Preferences” on your Mac Pro. Open “Network.”
2) For “Configure iPv4” set to “Manually.”
3) For “IP Address,” enter “192.168.0.1”
4) For “Subnet Mask,” enter “255.255.255.0”
5) Choose “Apply” in the lower right hand corner of the “Network” window.
6) On the Ki Pro, enter the CONFIG menu parameters and navigate to “IP CONFIG”
7) For “IP CONFIG,” select “STATIC ADDR”
8) Next, go to “IP ADDRESS” and for “IP ADDRESS,” set the IP address to “192.168.0.2” (if it is not already defaulting to this address)
9) Next, go to “SUBNET MASK” and set this to “255.255.255.0” (if it is not already defaulting to this subnet mask)
10) Connect an ethernet cable between the Mac Pro ethernet port you configured for the manual IP address and the Ki Pro.
11) Launch a web browser, such as Safari or Firefox.
12) In the address bar, type in “192.168.0.2”
13) If you have configured things correctly, you will see the AJA Ki Pro web UI appear.
14) On the left hand side of the UI, you should see the “Update Firmware” selection.
15) Select “Update Firmware” and use the “Choose File” button in the UI to navigate to the location where the Ki Pro .bin file is located. Select “Upload” after you have selected the .bin file.
16) Follow the remaining instructions as they are presented.
17) The Ki Pro should re-boot at the end of the process with the new firmware.

Update went fine.

When playing back a clip on-line I plugged my headphone in and it sounded pretty good. Again the volume peaked at 12:00 on the dial but quality was good.
