Yes I’d be in for getting the upgrade on the Cab2.  I don’t have widows now and can’t do it with the iPad.  Is anyone going to be doing the upgrade at YORK.  If so where?  Thanks again.

Hi Laz

I'm open to do upgrades but if I need to make modules I will need 2 writable modules (or 1 if upgrading a Cab2).  If you just want to bring you base (if needed) or both Base and Cab2 I can do that as well.  We could probably meet in the orange hall lobby between the main entrance food stand and the orange hall meeting room just past where the LCCA layout setup is.  Time around 11am to noon?

If I don't have to make modules and use mine i can at least keep my PC at home but am fine bringing it.  I will also bring my base and Cab2 to test the upgrade.  Everyone is welcome.

Well, I won't have a Legacy command base, so I was figuring on using my modules to do any upgrades.

Agreed and completely understand the position- they are 2 different tasks.

Writing the update to someone's writable module requires:

#1 a good writable module

#2 a Legacy base and power supply

#3 either a serial to usb adapter or LCS wifi module and cable system to connect the base to a computer. Some people even go direct serial cable to a computer with serial port. Basically, 1 of the 3 ways and all associated components.

#4 A windows computer with the Legacy System Utility and downloaded copy of the firmware update.

A pre-written module carried to the show, that you loan to the individual to update their CAB2 while standing in front of you.

Writing the update module is the hard part, using the module to update a CAB2 remote is trivial by comparison.
