Apparently, there is a new release today, but the release notes that it displays are in German. Can someone translate please?

My firmware update is taking an unusually long time. PC not responding when I try to cancel.
I did not update the control center prior to attempting the FW update. Could that be causing my problem? Or slow PC?

New GCC first, then update individual firmware for P4 then any additional devices.

Ok I started that process and the driver did not update (or whatever it’s supposed to do). On step 2 of the FW update, when I click “device manager” I do not see COM/LPT ports section.

I see at the bottom of the window that the driver may need to be updated manually. That’s beyond my knowledge level. Actually this whole FW update is

Any help updating my drive would be appreciated

What kind of computer and what operating system is installed on it ? Does it meet the requirements?

 

[Reefer911]

It’s a pc dedicated to the ProfiLux. I purchased it just for this reason and was able to install the device about this time last year with the pc.

I started my own thread on this if you’d like to go there…wasn’t sure I’d get much help here on this thread

 

[Dave-T]

If you don't see the profilux in device manager than the computer isn't seeing it. You can run device manager directly from windows, the computer should see the profilux on the USB port - this is nothing to do with GCC. Try unplugging and plugging back in the USB cable into the computer. Does that maek it show up? You should see the profilux as COM15 or something like that (not necessarily 15).

 

[Reefer911]

Yeah I tried that but it doesn’t come up. Maybe I’ll power it down and go through the steps again

 

[Reefer911]

The pc makes a sound when I unplug the usb but not showing up in device mgr

 

[Dave-T]

That could very well do it. Couldn't hurt to reboot the profilux too. And are you sure that your USB cable is good? And that the USB port on the computer works? I use an old Windows laptop to do profilux updates, and only one of the 4 USB ports on it actually works.

 

[Reefer911]

I somehow figured it out. I don’t even know how I did it wow

 

[Dave-T]

Does it make a sound when you plug in the USB cable? Are you looking under "COM and LPT Ports" (or something like that) in Device manager? If it makes a sound when you plug in the USB cable, then it is seeing the Profilux.

 

[Reefer911]

I had to install the driver again after updating GCC

Now the ProfiLux FW is up to date but I need to figure out how to perform the other updates that were mentioned in this thread by Gaël

Usually I fire up the computer. Plug in the P4 wait to hear the noise from the computer recognizing it, then open GCC. Seems to work every time. Also anytime I go to connect another peripheral device I unplug the usb, close GCC then plug the new device in, wait for the sound, open GCC again and connect.

A lot of posts crossing each other in this thread. Glad you figured it out! What else do you need to update?

 

[Reefer911]

I have the WiFi module updating now, and just power cycled the unit.

 

[Reefer911]

Not sure how to know if that updated though

Edit: I have 7515 running so it worked
