If the centre section of the console surface fails to start-up correctly this is most likely due to the Cached Files being corrupt. This can occur when the console has been switched off incorrectly e.g. has the power pulled.
To fix the issue insert a USB key with the appropriate software for the console (e.g. CDC six Console Software for a CDC six) into the desk.
Press Clear Caches when it pop ups on the screen, then wait for it to finish processing – this may take several minutes.
Pressing Clear Caches on the software command key will fix this issue as it clears out and checks for corruption in the Cadac files.
NOTE: It is advised to use the Clear Caches button whenever you update the console.
WARNING: If the incorrect Console Software version has been used (e.g. CDC six Console Software on a CDC five) pressing Clear Caches will stop the desk from loading, and will require a TOTAL RECALL to fix.
Manually Remove Cashed Files
You can also remove Cached Files manually (or check if they are there) by going into Explorer on the console:
C:\Users\ecomixer\AppData\Local
You can insert an appropriate Console Software USB key in to the console, then double tap on Expert and then press Explorer, which will allow you to then navigating to the folder.
Or by using a USB keyboard attach to the desk.
App Data is a hidden folder so you need to make sure you can see hidden files before you can access it by:
Delete all folders within the Local folder that relate to CADAC and SCC Audio. NO OTHER FOLDERS.
If the corrupted files have been removed then the desk will start up without any issues.
The CDC MC Dante has two internal Brooklyn cards, both of which have to be updated at the same time with the same code.
To update the cards within the CDC MC Dante unit it will require:

To update the CDC I/O 3216 you will need to connect it to a Windows PC via a USB cable.
But first, if you do not already have it installed, you will need to download and install the CDC I/O 3216 FPGA Loader App on to you PC before you can update the firmware on the stage box.
Below are the instructions on how to install the FPGA Loader on the PC:
Your PC will re-boot and present a screen titled Startup Settings, press F7 (or 7) to disable driver signing enforcement.
When the PC has finished re-booting you will be able to connect the CDC I/O 3216 via the USB port on the rear of the unit to your PC with a suitable USB cable.
Run the StageBox Audio Mixer program from the icon installed on your desktop. This should give you a program Window that looks like the one below:
You should now have the latest firmware version on the CDC I/O 3216.
Below are the instructions on how to update the firmware on the CDC I/O 6448:
You should now have the latest firmware version on the CDC I/O 6448.
