Follow the steps below to update the firmware of your Super 6:
-
Enter bootloader mode:
- Turn off the Super 6 and wait a few seconds.
- Whilst holding down the SHIFT button, turn on the Super 6 and continue to hold the SHIFT button.
- Progress LEDs will cycle through buttons 1-8 and A-H while the LED of the SHIFT button is flashing. (Make sure this is the case, restart step 2 if not.)
- Release the SHIFT button.
- Connect the Super 6 to your computer using a USB cable.
- The Super 6's boot drive appears as a disk drive named SUPER6-BOOT on your computer.
- Delete the firmware file 'xos_v*.**.bin' from the SUPER6-BOOT drive. Make sure to empty the trash if you are a macOS user, or the update won't be possible.
- Copy the latest firmware file 'xos_v*.**.bin' from your computer to the SUPER6-BOOT drive. If asked if you want to copy files without properties, choose 'yes'. Please note that this process may take a few minutes. Do not turn off the instrument or unplug the USB cable during the transfer!
- When the transfer is complete, disconnect the USB cable.
- Turn off the Super 6, wait a few seconds and turn it on again. The instrument reboots and you will see progress LEDs, followed by a combination of briefly lit lettered select buttons. Each time you turn on the Super 6, this combination of lit buttons will indicate the currently installed firmware version.
