- Run the Dashboard and update the SW for all beacons and modem using Dashboard =>
Firmware => Choose the file => Program
- If you see the message “Not found modem connection to computer through USB” in the
Dashboard or your PC does not recognize beacons/modem, it usually means that the
STM32 driver is not installed. To install the driver, download it through the link in the top
window in the Dashboard and run the installation file, then click on the link under and install
the driver
Make sure that that:
- You are programming the modem’s SW to the modem and the beacon’s SW to the
beacon
- You are using SW for Mini-TX, if you have Mini-TX; and you have the SW from the same
SW pack, i.e., the Dashboard SW, modem SW, and beacon SW must be from the same
SW pack. Don’t mix SW releases
If SW flashed SUCCESSFULLY, MOVE DIRECTLY TO 4.4.6. If you have some
problems with HEX programming, use DFU programming:
DFU programming or SW uploading is used when HEX SW uploading in the Dashboard
cannot be used. For example, when you are updating from a very old SW version or when
the SW includes major changes to the system and the only possible way to update the SW
is via DFU programming
6.5.5.1. After the DFU SW upgrade, future SW upgrades can be done in a
regular manner via the Dashboard
6.5.5.2. To start programming, move the beacon’s DIP switch to the DFU
programming mode, as described in the paragraph on DIP switch modes
(DIP switch in Mini-RX and Mini-TX situated inside the body. Carefully
disassemble the body to access it, as described in paragraph How to
Flash Beacon Mini-RX)
6.5.5.3. Download the latest SW package, unzip and select the proper version of
the SW for your HW and for your frequency variant. Remember that for
DFU programming, you should use DFU SW (DfuSe), not Dashboard’s
.hex file
6.5.5.4. Download DfuSe
6.5.5.5. Here you will find different versions of DfuSe. v3.0.5 or v3.0.6, whichever
works the best for your Windows: DfuSe v3.0.5 or DfuSe v3.0.6
DFU Programming:
6.5.5.6. Put DIP switch into Power = ON, DFU = ON (DIP switch in Mini-RX
and Mini-TX situated inside the body. To switch it, carefully
disassemble the body)
