    Default Firmware upate over USB - unplug powerbars before!

    Thanks for your feedback.
    How did you update? Over onboard USB or converter? With ProfiLuxControl or Flasher Tool?
    Any problems during update?

    would it be possible for you to try again USB to USB and give me feedback on your findings? This is important information to help me with support cases.

    I am sad to report that I tried this as requested with devastating results. The installation over the USB to USB stopped in the middle. DO NOT USE USB TO USB TO INSTALL FIRMWARE "P."

    Hi Ken

    I do not think the flash tool can be used with USB to USB it can only be used with RS232 or converter

    What I meant was to attempt update using ProfiLux control over direct USB.

    You are able to restore ok and then try firmware update over profiLux control USB to USB ?

    I am trying to restore now. Do I need to use the jumper on the profilux 3 like it says to in the profilux 2 user manual? Cannot seem to find directions to use flasher for p3.

    This is what I tried to do and the system stopped in the middle of the firmware update. It would not go forward and this is where I had to have a crash course in the flasher program (great program by the way).

    There is a forum thread on directions for using and it was exactly what I did and had no problem.
