10 Firmware Update for the Radio Module

The same firmware version must always be installed in both radio modules of the RF data link.

Display of the firmware version in ROBO Pro: Interface test − Info tab under "USB Radio" (see the chapter 6 "Settings

in ROBO Pro").

Procedures for Firmware Update

1. Interface−Radio Module: Connect the interface with the installed radio module to the USB cable. Call up the

interface test in ROBO Pro. If the firmware version for the interface itself is not up−to−date, ROBO Pro suggests to first

update the interface firmware. Follow the instructions. After this update and rebooting of the interface, the interface

test is called up again. Then, ROBO Pro suggests that the firmware for the interface−radio module be updated.

Follow the instructions.

2. PC Radio Module: Connect the PC radio module to the USB. Call up the interface test in ROBO Pro. ROBO Pro

automatically suggests the firmware update. Follow the instructions. After the update is complete, interrupt the

power supply for a short time by pulling the USB plug.

If both radio modules have the same updates they can communicate with each other.

As soon as a radio module is mounted on the interface printed circuit board, the functionality of the port push button on

the interface is expanded as follows (see instructions, Interface, Push Button (5)):

Automatic interface selection (auto−scan mode): The LEDs for COM, USB and radio (green LED on the interface module),

blink alternately.

Fixed Setting of an Interface

Push the port button once. The radio module is turned off and only the COM and USB blink. No more data is received

through the RF data link.

Press the port button again, several times if necessary. One of the interfaces, COM, USB, IR or radio, can be set so it is

fixed. The LED for the selected interface lights up continuously. To return to the auto−scan mode, press button 5 until

the LEDS blink alternately.
