So instructions are on rc:

First you connect with the connection software.
Then you go to system and select firmware upgrade.
Easy once you figure it out.

I tried upgrading over USB but I get error 8 Flasherase - No response

I had to reset and it worked.

Did my usb firmware upgrade cause this problem?

I've had enough tonight I will try the expansion box tomorrow...

What exactly does that mean. There are obviously steps involved in the firmware upgrade (download software, connect usb, etc...). I want to know what these steps are. Especially because I have an expansion box as well. For the amount of money we pay for these controllers we shouldn't have to rummage through forums, or extensively long manuals to find out how to upgrade firmware. It should be posted in a separate pdf on the same page we download the firmware.

that means: start ProfiLuxControl, click connect, then invoke menu "file -> firmware update", then follow the instructions on the screen

of course this assumes you can connect with ProfiLuxControl, if you can't you maybe have to change the connection settings or install the correct USB driver
