K3: was not able to update firmware using a directory different from the default directory
 
|
I got an error message “One or more required firmware files is missing” when running the K3 Utility, even after I “Copy new files from Elecraft”. I created a new folder: /Elecraft/K3 Firmware/K3fw5r29 but I was not able not able to “Send new firmware to the K3”.
Then I changed to the default folder, got new firmware from the Elecraft site, and “Send new firmware to K3” was successful. Current status is that 5.29 firmware has been successfully loaded using the Default directory. So no problem here. But still, why was I not able to use the folder I had selected. ? Thanks, 73, Hoop K9QJS … K3 Utility MAC is 1.14.10.24 Currently installed in K3 is: MCU 5.14 FPF 1.19 DSP1 2.83 DSP2 N/A DVR 1.03 Available in folder MCU 5.29 FPF 1.22 DSP1 2.83 DSP2 2.83 [Appear to be missing available software for DVR] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

DVR firmware hasn't changed in long long time. DVRs have come from factory
with latest for long long time. 73, Guy K2AV On Friday, June 26, 2015, Jim Hooper <[hidden email]> wrote: > I got an error message “One or more required firmware files is missing” > when running the K3 Utility, even after I “Copy new files from Elecraft”. > I created a new folder: /Elecraft/K3 Firmware/K3fw5r29 but I was not > able not able to “Send new firmware to the K3”. > > Then I changed to the default folder, got new firmware from the Elecraft > site, and “Send new firmware to K3” was successful. > > Current status is that 5.29 firmware has been successfully loaded using > the Default directory.

There is a tiny boot and dtbl file missing. The list is in k3 utility help under troubleshooting missing files.
In general, I'd advise taking the whole zip file, rather than picking and choosing individual files. The files have non obvious interdependencies, MCU to FPF and DSP, and DSP to tboot and dtbl files. The DVR firmware is factory supplied, not changeable through the utility. > On Jun 26, 2015, at 10:18, Guy Olinger K2AV <[hidden email]> wrote: > > DVR firmware hasn't changed in long long time.

Dick,
Yes, thanks. “tboot.hex” was missing. I had used the K3 Utility to “Copy New Files from Elecraft” so I am thinking that the tboot.hex file was not included in the files copied from Elecraft into the new director. ???
