 ====== Firmware Update ====== ====== Firmware Update ======
 +
 +This document will walk through how to load new firmware onto a device.
 +
 +We have a number of products so the first thing you'll need to do is determine if the reset button is accessible without opening the case.
 +
 +----
 +
 +===== External Reset =====
 +
 +For these products you just need a paperclip to press the reset button.
 +  * S1D Digital Controller
 +  * S1A Analog Controller
 +  * SB4 Controller
 +  * RB4 Controller
 +  * 8K2 Controller
 +
 +There will be a small hole close to the center of the unit through which you can place the straightened end of a paperclip through to press the reset button. (A SIM card ejector pin also works well.)

 +
 +----
 +
 +===== Internal Reset =====
 +
 +For the following products you will need to remove the bottom cover of the device to access the reset button.
 +  * The Big Button
 +  * The Button
 +  * The Dual Button
 +  * B3 Three Button Controller
 +  * Footswitch
 +  * Dual Footswitch
 +  * MIDI Controller LC
 +  * MK1 Controller
 +
 +The PCB will be wrapped in blue tape, with a black dot indicating where the reset button is. Pressing down on the black dot will press the reset button. Press it and you should recognize the feel of a button being pressed and hear a slight "​click"​ sound.
 +
 +{{:​products:​internals-01.jpg?​direct&​600|}}
 +
 +----
 +
 +You will need to **press and hold the reset button** down //while plugging the device into your computer//.
 +
 +Doing this will cause the device to go into **USB Storage Mode** and will mount on your computer like an external drive.
 +
 +{{:​products:​01-rpi-rp2-mounted.png?​direct&​800|}}
 +
 +You should see a new drive appear on your computer. It will be named **RPI-RP2**.
 +
 +----
 +
 +{{:​products:​02-rpi-rp2-files.png?​direct&​600|}}
 +
 +The drive will contain two files. Ignore the files, **do not delete or attempt to edit them**.
 +
 +----
 +
 +Copy the new **UF2** file to the **RPI-RP2** drive. It will disconnect/​dismount from your computer and the update should be complete.
 +
 +Test it out. If the update did not seem to work try it again.
 +
 +----
 +
 +===== Where do I get a UF2 file? =====
 +
 +Typically we will provide you one via email after discussing how you want the device programmed.
