Reflash DL1 Firmware from Data Card (not Com port)

Postby Maxx » Fri Jun 05, 2009 9:38 pm

I felt sure this was possible but cannot find any info on it, the reflash instructions referenced in the firmware updates section seems to suggest it must be done via serial (COM) port.

Not seen a COM port for a good few years.

Can it be done via the CF-Card?

Other devices can be done from the CF on the DL1 but the DL1 itself must be done by serial.

I've had no troubles with the Keyspan brand adapter.

Keyspan and Tripp is not too visible in Australia. It looks better than the cheaper stuff on the market.

Does the USB/Serial adaptor cable work as well as the expensive PCMCIA devices?
They are difficult to source here as well.
