Bootloader Update



DANGER!
Under no circumstances should the USB connection be disconnected or the laptop battery run out during these steps.


The current version of the bootloader can be found under "Settings - System - System Info".

This procedure installs a second bootloader in the memory of the actual NextGen program, which can then be used to overwrite the first bootloader.


Download Bootloader 0.6

Changelog:

V 0.6

- No windows driver needed


Unzip the download package:
AK-Motion-NG-BL_0_6.srec
AK-Motion-NG-BL-Step1.srec


Start AK-Motion NextGen Updater V1.0
Click on "Browse..."
Select "AK-Motion-NG-BL-Step1.srec"

Press Update at the display:

Settings - System - Update

The update only takes a few seconds and the updater closes itself after successful update
The backlight now switches on and off more slowly

Start again AK-Motion NextGen Updater V1.0
Click on "Browse..."
Select "AK-Motion-NG-BL_0_6.srec"

The new bootloader is now installed. Updater closes itself after successful update.
The background lighting now switches between flashing quickly and slowly every 5 seconds.

Now it is best to disconnect the USB cable.

Start again AK-Motion NextGen Updater V1.0
Click on "Browse..."
Select the NextGen update (e.g. version 1.37) and wait until the updater has loaded the file (it will display "Connecting to the target (press Update in System Settings)".

When the backlight flashes quickly, plug in the USB cable and the update will begin.

The upload should now start. If an error occurs, repeat the last step (select NextGen Update), then perhaps the second bootloader was active at that time.

Done.
