Updating the firmware
The FH-1's firmware can be updated from a USB flash drive. The process is as follows:
- Download the firmware file.
- Unzip the download.
- Copy the file 'image.hex' from the unzipped download to the root folder of a USB flash drive.
- Turn off the FH-1 and insert the USB flash drive.
- Turn on the FH-1. It will go through its startup sequence as above. At the stage where LEDs H/8 flash alternately, if the FH-1 finds a USB flash drive with a file named 'image.hex' on it, it will proceed to the next step.
- LEDs A-H will flash alternately with LEDs 1-8. This indicates the FH-1 is waiting for your confirmation before proceeding. At this point, spinning the encoder will cancel the upgrade process and the FH-1 will continue to boot its current firmware. To continue with the firmware update, press and hold the encoder for one second.
- When the update starts, LED B will light and LEDs 1-8 will flash to indicate progress. Do not remove the flash drive or turn off the power during the update.
- When the update is complete, the FH-1's usual boot process will resume.
About Device Firmware:
Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.
On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.
When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.
As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.
Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release.
