When a firmware update is available for your Ledlenser lamp, an automatic pop-up notification appears in the connection screen of the app. In addition, a firmware update icon will appear in the upper right area of the main menu (square chip icon with exclamation mark) as long as the update has not been executed.
Requirements for a successful firmware update:
- Sufficient battery capacity of the lamp and smartphone (minimum 50% recommended) used for the update process.
- Smartphone with stable internet connection and latest version of the Ledlenser Connect app.
- Enabled Bluetooth function of the smartphone must be enabled until the update process has been completed.
- Smartphone and app must be in close proximity and the Bluetooth connection may not be interrupted until the update process has been completed.
- Smartphone and app must remain switched on until the update process has been completed.
- The app may not be turned off or closed until the update process has been completed.
Executing a firmware update (if available):
- Start the app, turn on the lamp and click on “connect”.
- Click on “ok” in the firmware availability notification. Alternatively click on the firmware update icon in the upper right area of the main menu (square chip icon with exclamation mark), then click on “execute” and confirm with “yes”. The update process starts automatically and the red, green and blue LED of the Lamp will turn on shortly after.
- A bar indicates the progress of the firmware update. The update process takes about 5-10 minutes.
- After the firmware update has been completed successfully, a notification will appear and the red, green and blue LED of the Lamp will turn off. App and lamp can now be normally operated again.
- For some smartphone models it may be necessary to restart the app and lamp after the firmware update.
Firmware update failed, cancellation of firmware update process:
- Under certain conditions a firmware update may not be successfully completed, e.g. when the Bluetooth connection has been interrupted during the update process.
- In some instance, the red, green and blue LED of the Lamp may remain turned on permanently after the update process has been canceled or interrupted until the update has been completed.
- To do the firmware update again and successfully, the update process can be repeated until it is completed.
- In some instance it may be necessary to restart the smartphone and reset the lamp (open and close battery cap) before repeating the firmware update process.
