ELSYS Firmware Upgrade Tool User Guide
REQUEST FIRMWARE
Request firmware by checking our website. The firmware is supplied as .bin-
files
PREPARATION
- Connect the Upgrade Tool to the computer with a micro-B USB cable (one is provided with the Upgrade Tool). It appears as a USB drive. It should already have two files, one readme, and one JavaScript file. Do not remove these files; they should always be on the Upgrade Tool. If the JavaScript file is accidentally deleted, it can be downloaded here.
- Add the .bin file to the Upgrade Tool by dragging and dropping it into the file explorer on your computer.
- Disconnect the programming stick from the computer before programming.
NOTE: You can only use the Upgrade Tool with one firmware at a time, so the Upgrade Tool should only contain one .bin-file. The preparation steps 1-3 must be repeated for every unique firmware/device type.
PROGRAMMING
- If the device to upgrade does not have a battery inserted, Connect the Upgrade Tool to a 5V USB port (computer/charger/power bank).
- Hold the Upgrade Tool to the programming port on the device (see pictures below). The LED on Upgrade Tool may stop lighting due to the supercapacitor charging; keep holding the Upgrade Tool to the programming port if this happens.
- Upgrade Tool starts programming once connected.
- If the programming is successful, the sensor will perform a boot up, and the sensor LED will flash BLUE, RED, GREEN, and YELLOW.
NOTE: If you have problems with the programming procedure when the Upgrade Tool is connected to a computer, you can try connecting it to a different USB port or power source. The computer might not provide sufficient current to the Upgrade Tool or may cause problems by trying to communicate with the EKP during programming
