Hi all
I have just tried to do the firmware update on my k3s, but come accross a
problem and now it's stuck in MCU Ld
And cannot get away from this now I have tried to follow the
troobleshooting advice but still no joy.
Has anyone come accross the same problem and if so how do I sort it.
Regards
Paul g0bkc

I had this happen on my KX3 once. Followed the recovery procedure in the manual and it worked like a charm.  

Follow closely.

Paul:

There is a recovery procedure in KX3 Utility Help, Troubleshooting, MCU Load
Failure.

Also connect the KXUSB directly from the PC to the KX3 without an
intervening PX3 or KXPA100 if you get into this situation.

Paul,

Refer to either the manual or K3 Utility "Force a Firmware Download" and
follow the instructions given there.
That condition is usually the result of a communications glitch during a
firmware download.  Always wait until the firmware load completes before
touching the K3 or the computer.

73,
