Firmware Restoration

The controller's firmware can be restored using RoboPlus Manager.  This is used when the current firmware is causing problems and you would like to revert to an older version.

 

Restoring the Controller's Firmware

  1. Run "Controller Firmware Wizard."
    Press the "Controller Firmware Management" icon.

  2. Select the communication port to use
    Because the firmware cannot be automatically detected, the user must manually select the port to which the controller is connected.  If the chosen communication port is being used by another program, you must first find and stop the program.  Press the "Find" button after selecting the port.

  4. Check controller information
    When the controller is detected, its model name and version number are shown.  Verify that the controller information is correct. ("Version" in "controller information" refers to the bootloader version, not the firmware version.)
