Mx1 Operations update 19

[DouglasD]

Hello all , My first post here. Mx1 (Landscape) Started up in system 17 last weekend. It froze in testing as discussed in the other thread.
I just tried upgrading to System 19. Loaded two new files from upgrade page to files on a SD card.
https://www.mglavionics.co.za/mx1upd.html. Started up,held the knob it loaded the first,? But…. At the bottom, says it can’t use boot file. What did I do? Both came from the same place.

“ New firmware, loaded
Current MX, one application will not
work with this MX10PSFW. Please
update with compatible MX1FW.”

you have to do two cycles of firmware upgrades. With the first boot, the bootloader is renewed. With the second the firmware.

Thanks for this. I had to separate the two files on different cards. It took the boot fine by itself, and then the system file on a second card. Done,it’s alive again. Ok now back to testing and figuring out settings.

good it worked.
i had both on the same card. With the first reboot it updated the bootloader.
The second boot then detected the bootloader is the same and flashed the firmware.
I do it with just holding the button until the firmware is flashing.

anyways, good it works.
