update version

When I open my shopbot to cut, it tells me I need to update my 'version' (not sure if that's the exact wording). It's done that since I loaded it-and I got the most current upload when it came just a couple weeks ago. is there something I should do? I would have thought the most current update came with the machine... If I need to 'update', what/how do I do that? Thanks, Robin

Robin,
They are constantly releasing minor updates, seems that every time I check I am several behind.

I am guessing that since you are getting a message, your version on your pc and the firmware on the bot don't match.

Go get the latest from shopbot and then with everything hooked up tell the control software to update the firmware.

[www.shopbottools.com]

The command to update the firmware is: UI

Thanks Mark, I'll do that. And thanks for the very specific instructions! I would have updated my computer probably without having it hooked up to my handibot:-)

Ha!, I was not clear, you do not have to be connected to your bot during the download and update but the next time you do conect, isue the UI command and follow the directions that pop up.
