1 Das Gerät funktioniert nach dem Firmware Update nicht
Falls Ihr Gerät nach dem Firmware-Update nicht ordnungsgemäß funktioniert, können Sie die folgende Anleitung verwenden, damit es wieder funktioniert.
Important question is, why it failed?
- Possibilities are:
- You have used old software (version 1.2 and older) and flashed a wrong file.
- Connection between unit and computer is not stable (check the cables).
- Software issue (installed driver in your computer is not correct) [Most common].
If you are on Windows, please re-install the software with the option for Driver installation. Then it will install correct driver. Then reboot the PC.
If you are on Mac, use this driver: http://spirit-system.com/dl/driver/SiLabsUSBDriverDisk.dmg
Other drivers will very probably not work correctly - especially for the flashing process!
- Prerequisities for the recovery process:
- Correct driver in your operating system.
- Status LED of the unit must flash for a short time during power up.
- Disconnect ELE/PIT/AIL cable from the unit (when PWM connection is used).
2 How to revive the unit
Connect the USB interface to your PC and the unit (SYS port).
- Start the software. Select NO when prompted for Demo mode.
- Go to the Update tab and select firmware you want to flash (4df file extension).
- Press the Flash button (and then OK) - you should see "Recovery mode" label in the software.
- Power up the unit (from your BEC or a battery). Immediately after power up, flashing should start.
- In 20 seconds, unit should be operating again without any issue. Your settings are untouched.
