Firmware update fails! - mr_city - 11-30-2024
Hi!
Please help me with firmware update of vLinker FS USB.
So I followed this instruction:
https://community.cyanlabs.net/t/updating-firmware-and-initial-setup-vgate-vlinker-fs-in-forscan/5539/2
I downloaded vLinker FS_USB_v2.3.02.zip and installed CDM21228_Setup.exe. Then I installed also CDM212364_Setup.exe from https://ftdichip.com/drivers/vcp-drivers/ (although I am not sure if I needed to because it feels the same as CDM21228_Setup.exe).
And THEN I tried to run vLinkerFwUpdater v3.6.exe from the same zip. I carefully followed instructions (chose vLinker_FS_v2.3.02.txt file) but got the message "**Failed** Please power on the device again!"
WHY???
And do I really need this firmware update? The light is blue and COM port is being recognized by windows.
