Hi,



I have pulled together the latest PowerFLARM news and put it onto my FLARM

web page. If you have been following recent posts here there is no new

information there. But I did do my best to explain the news.

Good Soaring,

Hi Paul,
I will dig through the RAS posts and try to find the example of what I am asking. I recall that there were text strings that could be added to the CONFIG file that would cause Powerflarm to report back some information. For example what the current firmware was, so you would know that the firmware had indeed updated.
I see that the Butterfly website says that you can update it's files without the cable you refer to using only a USB drive. Do you know what the latest is on that? Are you correct or are they?

I read on your site that early powerflarms needed to be sent back and upgraded but a private email clarifies that only the portables need to be sent back, I misread the information on your site.

I regret dragging everyone back through all this and wish there was a central and accurate sorce of information.

I really thank Paul R and everyone else for your assistance.

Brian
